These are two projects I worked on with Gilles Stassart when in Ethiopia; they finally blended into one at the Alliance Éthio-Française in Addis Ababa, in a series of performances:
- VIP dinner with WFP rations, November 2018
- Sonic Barbecue part 1, November 2018
- Sonic Barbecue part 2, March 2019
Part 1: The Hunger Kitchen
The Hunger Kitchen idea started with the following observation that I made while working in Somaliland and Somalia: beneficiaries of food aid generally dislike the food rations they receive, and do not know what to do with them. Therefore, they often resell those rations to buy foodstuffs they’re more familiar with.
