My Microfood
Under a microscope, the forms of objects in our everyday lives can transform in exciting ways. Back then, during science class, I rarely got a chance to look through the microscope lens since we had to take turns. Sometimes, by the time it was my turn, class was already over. So, I studied the pictures in our textbooks instead. During lunch break— always eagerly awaited— I’d sometimes imagine what my favorite foods would look like if I could see it under a microscope. The grains of rice, or the meat that were so thin that the tiny patterns inside were visible. Mulberry paper is the star of this piece, which depicts a world of my favorite foods.
