FAIRE CONTENANT: entre formes et saveurs.
A ceramic and plant-based cooking workshop through an eco-somatic approach.
●
In her essay The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction (1986), Ursula Le Guin proposes reversing the dominant narrative of human culture: before the tool that destroys, we invented the container — the basket, the gourd, the clay bowl. The container as the first gesture of culture allowed us to carry and preserve water, grains, herbs. It is from this invitation that we will inhabit this week, with the intention of reversing the narratives that sustain us and sensitising our bodies from the hands that reach the heart in contact with the earth.
We want to make forms contain: care, relationship, clay,and let the flavours of the world express themselves through them. We want to build ecological counter-narratives that invite us to gather, to open clay pots and cook together. We will light a fire, an ancestral technology that will accompany us through ceramic transformation.
This workshop is a micropolitical gesture: sharing flavours/knowledges that can expand our resources of autonomy and sustainability. Creating a time to embody the territories we inhabit, expanding our sensitivity toward more-than-human dialogues.
Open to anyone curious, with no prior experience required. Instruction in French, Spanish and English.
