Rasmus Munk, the visionary chef and co-owner of Alchemist in Copenhagen, sits down with Pearl Lam for a conversation that goes far beyond food. In this episode of The Pearl Lam Podcast, Rasmus opens up about his journey from traditional kitchens to creating one of the most radical and immersive dining experiences in the world. At Alchemist, meals unfold across multiple acts, combining theatrical presentation, visual art, science, and social commentary into a singular experience. Guided by his philosophy of “holistic cuisine,” Rasmus uses food as a platform to provoke thought and spark dialogue around global issues. From climate change and sustainability to inequality and ethics in food systems. The conversation touches on the experimental process behind Alchemist’s boundary-pushing creations, the emotional responses they aim to evoke, and how art and activism inform Rasmus’s approach to storytelling through cuisine. Pearl and Rasmus also delve into the deeper questions driving his work: What role can chefs play in shaping cultural narratives? How can dining become a catalyst for change? And where does gastronomy end and performance art begin? Subscribe to be the first to see an exclusive tour of the Alchemist soon!

Pearl Lam sits down with acclaimed British artist Maggi Hambling for a revealing discussion about Maggi’s life and career. Maggi Hambling occupies a unique position as an artist who has consistently embraced a spirit of rebelliousness throughout her career, making her one of the most celebrated female artists in the British art scene. Joining Pearl and Maggi is Louisa Buck, a British art critic and art journalist who has made significant contributions as an author and co-author of books focusing on the intricate workings of the contemporary art market. Together they delve into topics including Maggi and Louisa’s joint stint on 1980s gameshow Gallery, and Maggi’s exploration of the seduction and intimacy. Maggi shares insightful new stories and anecdotes from throughout her life and career from childhood to the present day; describes how the night time has been an enduring subject, having first painted the night sky from her bedroom window at age fourteen. Rooted in her own lived experiences, Hambling’s work remains a reflection of and draws inspiration from people, places, and her identity as a pioneering artist with a queer perspective. Hambling believes that regardless of the time dedicated to a painting, it must culminate in a single moment—akin to the profound physicality of love.

Sam Cox, best known as @MrDoodle , has turned his passion into a lifestyle. As one of the world’s most successful contemporary artists with almost 3million followers on Instagram, his unique artistic vision has captivated audiences of all ages, transporting them into a world of intricate patterns. Inspired by childhood cartoons and video games, his love for drawing began at the age of 3 when he would replicate the colourful images that jumped out at him through the TV screen. At 15 he cemented his craft and became a self-proclaimed ‘obsessive compulsive doodler’. Mixing characters with objects and patterns he describes his work as Graffiti Spaghetti - a series of interlocking patterns, and surreal narratives that often chronicle the adventures of Mr Doodle in “Doodle Land.” In this latest episode of The Pearl Lam Podcast, Sam talks about the launch of ‘Mr Doodle In Space’ - his solo exhibition at Pearl Lam Galleries in Hong Kong where he invites the audience to join Mr and Mrs Doodle as they battle Dr Scribble in an epic showdown to restore peace to Doodle Land. During the episode Sam and Pearl Lam also discuss how he made his way from a small rural town in England to reaching global recognition, why he just wants to spread happiness and his ultimate dream of doodling the entire world. This episode of The Pearl Lam Podcast is a celebration and exploration of the incredible and transformative power of art and doodling as a respected art form.

"A flower is not only an element of decor - it is a fundamental expression of beauty and nature's intelligence" - Michal Korman I am delighted to announce the upcoming exhibition Les Fleurs du Jour, the first solo show in China by Michal Korman. Korman's work captures the fleeting beauty of everyday life through lush still lives, expressive interiors, and intimate portraits.
