Parel (1997, Brussels) is an artist who works with food, as a way of bringing people together.
She hosts projects that are driven by creating social interaction: by having people join immersive experiences she invites them to challenge established norms in a collective manner.
She is studying a Fine art Master at HKU after she graduated (2022) at Willem de Kooning Academy, Rotterdam in Transformation design with ‘Ingredients of an encounter’.
Parel invites you for a dinner, collaboration or an encounter.
