Open Kitchen with Marina Monsonís, Ana Luisa Islas and Susana Isunza
For our latest activity, the Open Kitchen is featuring two creators from Mexico: Ana Luisa Islas Bravo and Susana Isunza Vizuet.
We are hosting a collective learning experience where Ana Luisa will present her book Mejor oler a mar: Apuntes sobre la descolonización del estómago while Susi will share her self-managed social and artistic project: Ollín Kaos.
Come take part in this decolonial healing ritual by preparing food together as a community. We’ll cook blue crab or jaiba, nopales (prickly pear) and corn flour gorditas. We will share the kitchen as well as the dinner table to help heal an unhealthy world that has trampled on and continues to step over people and other species. We will be able to see those who migrate, whether animal or human, with more empathetic and loving eyes. Our palates will embrace what we see as foreign, invasive or different.
Wear comfortable clothing that you won’t mind getting a bit dirty so you can move your body more easily.
NOTE: All the ingredients used in cooking will be locally sourced and seasonal, having been selected based on the criteria of social and climate justice.
