FatBoy Zine. Issue 5: TAIWAN - I AM BECOMING WHAT I WANT TO BE

£9.00

Our new issue focusses on the amazing, and often underrepresented Taiwan. In this issue, we worked with talented chefs, food designers, artists and curators to understand how the idea of “Taiwanese” is still being explored, and what’s driving Taiwan right now is expression, openness to ideas and not worrying about labels. Making this issue, the most thought-provoking and explorative issue we’ve ever made.'

This issue contains three interviews, from exciting and accomplished talent based in Taiwan, (Ivy Chen, writer, instructor and TV personality, Frank Huang, curator and founder of Taipei Artbook Fair, and Slow Chen, Food Designer and Architect). As well as writing from the amazing Erchen Chang (Creative Director and Co-founder of BAO, previously featured in issue 4) and Tiffany Chang (supper club Chef, and Crazy Delicious winner 2020). As usual we will feature Six delicious recipes from Taiwan. With artwork and illustration created by Ze Lai aka Silky Rabbit. During my time in Taiwan, I realised how exciting it was that this question around ‘what makes anything Taiwanese’ was still being thoughtfully (and constantly) questioned and reshaped. There was no interest in worrying about a definition of ‘Taiwanese’, Making this issue the most thought-provoking and explorative issue we’ve ever made.
