The chef behind TAKEOUT 001

Chef

Sushi chef · Catch

Before it became artwork, it was a moment at the pass.

Chef Stan Xu is the sushi chef behind the image that became TAKEOUT 001. His work at CATCH places precision, presentation and ingredient at the center of the plate, the same details that first caught our lens and eventually became the Nigiri Tee.

For TAKEOUT 001, we returned to the source: the chef, the hands and the plate behind the art.
