Acts of Opening Again

A Choreography of Conviviality

Nous nous connaissons en foule, dans l'inconnu qui ne terrifie pas. Nous crions le cri de poésie. Nos barques sont ouvertes, pour tous nous les naviguons.
—Édouard Glissant, Poétique de la Relation

Our goal is to create vibrant dishes inspired by Fulani communities across West and central Africa. We journey into kitchens of the keepers of authentic recipes and this advances a narrative of West African cuisine and of the Fulani people that features them as agents in their own histories, participating actively in the positioning of tradition as evolving and self-determined.
