Unwritten Handbook: Jorge Menna Barreto on foraging and wild edibles in Hyde Park

About

Jorge Menna Barreto imagines wild edibles as a site-specific food that speaks to and teaches our bodies and cells how to reconnect to wilderness and the landscape through our digestive systems. Over dandelion ice cream, the artist will discuss foraging, drawing and site-specificity in his practice before embarking on a search for wild edibles in Hyde Park and a botanical drawing workshop.

The project is commissioned by Fundação Bienal de São Paulo.
