La Table et le Territoire is a transdisciplinary European cooperation program that brings together a community of cultural actors involved in the ecological transition and sustainable food. From the field to gastronomy, hybrid initiatives led by artists in the fields of agriculture and food are multiplying on a European scale. La Table et le Territoire accompanies this new scene and promotes the importance of culture-based solutions.
La Table et le Territoire implements seven research-creation programs, led by artists and scientists in five European countries. By exploring territories that are strongly concerned by the relationship between food and territory in a context of climate change, the research-creation teams highlight this issue by proposing experiments and solutions for the future.
On the program of the festival:
September 19 from 11:00- 20:00 at Zone Sensible, Saint-Denis, France
A day of cultural programming at Zone Sensible, a permaculture urban farm, where more than 200 plant species grow year round! Concerts, workshops, exhibition, installations and interventions of artists in residence around nature and food (FR).
This event is part of the research-creation program Récits-Recettes in partnership with Zone Sensible and the
LADYSS-CNRS
. With Coal, meetings were organized for several months with the inhabitants of Saint-Denis to discover the aesthetic, gustatory and nutritional qualities of local culinary know-how. SILO, a collective of artists, is carrying out research and publishing work based on these recipe stories in order to imagine together what the specificities of sustainable food in Seine-Saint-Denis would be in the future.
