Food Imagination Project: Art Festival Pickling Cii Jar
Location
Opening Hours
Language Used / Song
Inspired by the shape of the persimmon, which is culturally significant among the Hakka community, the 2-liter glass khi jar is designed with modern, small families in mind. The rounded edges of the cube shape paired with brown lids immediately give viewers the impression of plump persimmon when seen from above, alluding to the imagery of abundance and harvest. The design ensures efficiency in storage capacity, making the khi jar easy to be stored in a cabinet or fridge, yet another manifestation of the hardworking, resilient, and resourceful nature of Hakka people.
