Communal Values

Food on Wheels is a cinematic essay and poetic portrayal of food delivery workers as they navigate the bustling streets. The film reflects on how the rise of this 'new working class' has reshaped the urban visual landscape. In different parts of the world, these workers may be migrants, people of color, or individuals from low-caste or rural backgrounds, all striving to make a living.


Beyond capturing their daily movements, Food on Wheels is also a critical examination of the changing urban environment. It explores how spaces like airports, grocery stores, and even entire cities are transforming into ""Non-Spaces""—transient, impersonal zones shaped by modern labor and commerce.


Vishnu Vardhani Rajan (b. 1978), a Body-Philosopher based in Helsinki, embodies a hyphenated identity and multidisciplinary practice. They connect art, science, witchcraft, history, and cultures through performance, filmmaking, writing, poetry, comedy, and somatic explorations—centering the body as a site of knowledge and resistance.
