'Art is snacks, life is dinner.“Snacks” started as a publication launched in 2008 that was created, edited, and published by artists and designers. It eventually led to collaborations with over two hundred artists from all over the globe, some of which are presenting their works in the Snacks exhibition in 2016. Since the artists gathered through the form of an exhibition, the Snacks exhibition resulted to be a happy revolt and a celebration that cannot be written in history, and thus a takeaway for this celebration is indispensable.

The book set was wrapped in a silver tinfoil lunch box, collecting ideas, experiments, and experiences of 38 artists of diverse lifestyles, from various places all over the world. In the eight years from 2008 to 2016, due to participating in the publication of a separate volume of "Snacks", their names flashed before our eyes, and in the spotlight of the exhibition Snacks in 2016, they returned to the publications again. Among the 20 booklets specially produced for the "Snack" exhibition, 19 volumes were edited by 19 artists/groups, and even the layout design was completed independently. The remaining 19 artists/groups worked together to complete a separate booklet. The 20 booklets in the box set are fluid landscapes, autonomous yet harmoniously intermingled, waiting for you to lift the silver curtain and to fall into the non-stop spinning wonderland.'description taken from publisher's website.
