AMBROSIA SALAD

AMBROSIA SALAD

IT’S CALLED AMBROSIA SALAD. 

We began researching 1950s fashion: the shilouettes, the colours, the rules (war rationing was still in place e.g. jackets could only have 3 buttons) This moved into exploring the ever-intriguing suburbia. An apparent utopia with nuclear families behind white picket fences. But where there was actually deep issues with racism and exclusion, where families repeated the same monotonous days over and over, where families kept secrets and hurt each other to maintain a perfect external image.
