The image features a collection of food items skewered on toothpicks, arranged on top of what appears to be a half of a grapefruit or orange, which is placed on a plate.
The food items include cubes of cheese, olives, crackers and small bread squares
The image has a bluish tone, with darker areas appearing lighter and vice versa. The overall appearance is reminiscent of a photographic negative.

  • Presented by: Melbourne Museum

  • In Collaboration with: Melbourne Fringe

Snack on a sampling of performances curated by Melbourne Fringe and devour Melbourne Museum’s collections and exhibitions with a full program of expert led talks and tours.

Find out if you are more Tim Tam or Barbecue Shape with Bert and Betty Bircher as they whip you up a nice cup of tea and sort out your inner biscuit. Go bananas with “Busy Bisexual Burlesque Baddie” Ruby Slippers as she peels back the layers of seduction with fruity flare, and spice up your night with Della Katessen serving up food-inspired Music Drag Bingo and tantalising prizes all night.

Start the weekend early and fill up on food, drinks, activities and music with friends until 9pm, plus your last chance to meet Victoria the T. rex after-hours, included as part of your Nocturnal ticket.
