A two-day gathering on labouring love collectively in Palestine and elsewhere

Warmly invited by Sophia, the Kitchen proposes to assemble and re-imagine possible relations to land and life, (m)otherwise. But how to ground ourselves and come together in light of an ongoing genocide and disregard of life in any and every form in Palestine? In a two-day gathering, artists and friends will be hosted to share their best recipes for solidarity. Through various practices of cooking, collective writing, reading, storytelling, grieving, lamenting, singing and filmmaking, generous and careful propositions of solidarity will be shared, to hold our ground against creeping forces of occupation and erasure. Engaging with the possibility to listen to land as gendered and embodied forms of narrations, grounding life over different past and future generations in counter-herstories and mythologies. Bringing together Palestinian feminist and anti-colonial ingredients, these shared recipes aim to nurture tangible relations of translocal solidarity and answer a shared will for dignity, care and liberation.
