Taking Root: Food Art Film Festival at CCA

Saturday, 7 October, 2023, 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.
CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G3 2JD
As society becomes increasingly fragmented, the gathering, preparing, and sharing of food has the power to root us deeply in relation with others both human and non-human. The 2023 edition of Food Art Film Festival takes up the themes of intimacy, connection, and community building, as explored by culinary artists living in Glasgow and the Netherlands including Sean Wai Keung, Marente van der Valk, Asli Hatipoğlu and Suzanne Bernhardt. Together these multidisciplinary creatives trace the cultural and historical influences of dishes, explore how food processes can produce intimate modes of connection with the land and one’s own body, and share how roots can be cultivated through community recipe sharing.
