Municipal Kitchens - Hanna Baumann
Hanna Baumann ( Germany, United Kingdom )
‘Municipal Kitchens’ is a research project, exhibition and event program asking what it would mean to make food a universal public service in cities.
Together with international artists and local food initiatives, it asks: How can we de-domesticate the kitchen, and make it part of public urban space, thereby moving care labour out of the private realm? How can food, a deeply personal and often divisive issue, be a source of community connection and collective action?
Understanding food as part of urban metabolisms, the project specifically considers the infrastructures - both physical and social - that can enable such visions.
