Haus of Wok is a celebration and archive of queer Malaysian stories told through food, memory, and community. This project explores how alternative queer spaces beyond nightlife can foster belonging and quiet resistance in a society where queerness is criminalised.

Centred around a supper club, the project documents the stories of queer Malaysians through recipes rather than photographic portraits, creating both visibility and protection.
