HUNGRY GHOSTS pays tribute to Black Caribbean matriarchs, Grandmothers and ancestors, through a series of cooking events and a vending machine which explore the impact of food, family and how the practice of cooking is linked to identity
About
HUNGRY GHOSTS, by artist Amy Lawrence and collaborators, reinvents memories of matriarchal cooking and follows the shifting relationship between food, identity and place visible in shared experiences of cooking and eating. This is channelled through passed-down recipes, seeing them as experimental stories which shape our identities and ancestral experiences.
The work is playfully distributed through VENDING, a free working vending machine in Leeds Kirkgate Foodhall, eating event Festival of Festival, an ode to sweet dumplings given to Foodhall visitors, and across Compass Festival at private Black Eating Clubs for invited guests.
