foodmasku is a multimedia artist based in New York City. He is a former Fulbright U.S. Scholar in Indonesia. He created the Instagram account foodmasku — face masks made from meals eaten during COVID-19 self-isolation — after seeing a fellow artist wear a pickle face filter during a zoom meeting. In response, he placed kale on his face and started posting a food face-mask selfie daily. The project was selected by The New York Times as one of "five art accounts to follow on Instagram now" and he has been minting his work since March of 2021.

Foodmasku (AKA Antonius Oki Wiriadjaja) is an artist and activist based in New York City. Known for making and wearing masks out of food, the Foodmasku alter ego developed during the height of the pandemic in April 2020. The name is a dual-language pun; in Bahasa Indonesia and Javanese, Food - mas - ku can also mean “Food of my brother.”
Foodmasku's work is an exploration of resilience, as he shows the importance of art for dealing with collective and personal trauma. In addition to his food mask art, Foodmasku has also created a photo series of his scars after surviving a gunshot to his stomach. He is also the creator of Delectables by foodmasku, the first generative photography project on the Ethereum blockchain.
