Traditions

 
“All tradition is merely the past” Jiddu Krishnamurti.

60mins of Fame

With One and Other, people in Britain had a chance to have 60mins to stand ontop of Trafalgar Square’s empty 4th plinth to do what they pleased. 60mins of fame. Some exhibited, some protested, some gave a speech…..and some just slept.

What would you have done with your 60mins?

• What sort of people should be immortalized in a statue or sculpture?
• Can statues be controversial?
• Do you think anyone achieved anything with their 60mins?
• What would you do have done with 60mins of fame?

Food

When I walk into my kitchen today, I am not alone. Whether we know it or not, none of us is. We bring fathers and mothers and kitchen tables, and every meal we have ever eaten. Food is never just food. It’s also a way of getting at something else: who we are, who we have been, and who we want to be. (Quote by M. Wizenberg)

What does food mean to you?

•  Memories from childhood
•  Tradition/ change
•  “Sense of place”:  My town/country/family
• Comfort, celebration, ceremony
