“This dinner table is a site of momentary entanglement; of knowledge, of (his)stories, of human and nonhuman, of landscapes, of bodies, of soil, and sky. This act of communal nourishment - sharing, spilling and chewing together- is an act of cohesive care. The singular is now multiple, the atom is now a molecule.” — Gobyfish Collective
Tickets
Tickets for the dinner cost £70 with limited availability of 25 seats. Profits are split between the collective and the gallery, and contribute to staging our 2022 exhibition and performance programme supporting early-career artists.
About Gobyfish Collective
Gobyfish Collective are a food-based collective who host performative dinners and create edible installations. Their anti-capitalist concept-dinners centre ritual food practices, collaboration and knowledge exchange, with an emphasis on seasonal, local and foraged produce. Foregrounding the act of eating as a metaphor to talk about wider conversations on ecology, the sociopolitical and ancestral ways of knowing; they see food as both subject and object.
