Our relationship with food has many origins – cultural, social, and spiritual. In a time defined by abundance and speed, how do we create space for understanding food’s potential for connection and social presence?
What evokes DISGUST – and what evokes PLEASURE – when we try to nourish both body and spirit? Can a cup of coffee become the starting point for conscious change? Can the gastrophysicist meet the artist – and can both meet the audience in a sensory exchange?
What do today’s food chains look like for the average person? Can we repair our connection to what we eat – and to each other?
