Asian Snack Enamel Pins
I've always been interested in cultivating nostalgia, and many of our most precious childhood memories are grounded in food.
As a passion project, I designed a series of enamel pins inspired by my favorite childhood snacks, and launched the campaign on Kickstarter. This was my response to the growing xenophobia around COVID-19 - it's a celebration of the dynamic Asian culinary patchwork and how shared nostalgia can connect a diaspora.
The pins are currently being manufactured, check back shortly for product photos!
