About
te is an annual bilingual publication on contemporary arts and cultural anthropology. Based on specific themes of each issue, we commission practitioners from different expertise to explore the dynamic cultural landscape between regions. The topics include the fluidity of cultures, languages and ideas in specific communities and the adaptation of individual narratives to the shifting social environment and geopolitics.
te aims to create an open and shared creative platform. The content can range from written articles, interviews, poems and photographs etc. We would also love to include manuscripts, notes, archives and other first-hand materials that documents or go along with the outcome. We hope to see the provided content as an extension of the author's daily practice; at the same time, we look forward to generating new forms of content through communication with the author.

Nothing is Authentic in The World of Cuisine
Elia Nurvista
If Palovosh is a common dish across Central Asia, then some other familiar foods are often accompanied by geopolitics and consumerism, and even become the victims of national disputes. Elia Nurvista initiates the discourse with borscht and explores the cultural ownership of food. Here, food is divided by borders while it acts as a border.
