The Open Kitchen. The fermented seed, colonialism and extractivism
The MACBA Kitchen is a working group situated against the backdrop of ecosocial crisis. Participants in the group aim to highlight the importance of intuitively imagining an ecofeminist kitchen, and take a particular interest in the wisdom of individuals, projects and experiences that work with dislocated knowledge in relation to food sovereignty.
Through the Open Kitchen we aim to share with the public, in an open format, topics of interest, research and concerns that we regularly tackle in our weekly meetings. It is also an opportunity to invite and bring together other specialised artists, thinkers, projects and collectives to establish lines of collaboration, engage in dialogue and reflect collectively.
