What does flavour feel like? This Thai recipe book uses hand-ripped collage and vivid pigments to figure it out. How do you capture taste, memory, the explosion of senses when eating? Norway-based illustrator Sveinung Sudbø (AKA originalkopi) has set out to recreate those unique experiences visually in his Thai recipe book Bang Cook Book, created in collaboration with graphic designer Julie Elise Hauge. “When I sat down at restaurants in Thailand, digging into the dishes, I drew between bites and tried to stay present while eating. I had my sketchbook and a set of aquarelle pastels and sketched down what came to mind, focusing on the sensations each dish gave me,” says Sveinung. “I tried to translate sensations into the visuals I associated with them – and that could vary from dish to dish. So although I developed a kind of visual language for taste during the trip, it was also very much tied to what I felt in each moment.” #ItsNiceThat
