On a molecular scale, the human body is like a galaxy, a hundred times richer in stars than the Milky Way. Maintaining its balance requires an exchange of matter and energy with the vast cosmos. Food plays an essential role here: the act of eating constitutes a genuine encounter between the world, oneself, and others. It weaves an inclusive continuity between humans and their environment.
In this video, scenes of cooking are juxtaposed with scenes of yoga, overlaid with images of celestial bodies. Both the human body and the universe have complex cycles, and the constant exchange between the two relies on nourishment, breathing, and attuning to the cosmic rhythm.
