What to ExpectThis 2-hour session is a contemplative and creative space designed to explore the deep connections between food, memory, family traditions, and body image. Inspired by themes from Pepa Duarte's theatrical production, participants will be guided through a journey of self-reflection and creative expression, with movement and free-writing. The workshop will encourage you to:Explore Memories and Traditions Reflect on how food shapes your memories and family traditions, and how these experiences influence your perception of the kitchen, body, and identity.Examine Gender Roles Discuss the traditional dynamics of food preparation and how these roles are tied to gender, always approached with kindness, fun, and a touch of excitement.Celebrate Cultural Heritage Consider the role of food in preserving cultural traditions and strengthening familial bonds.Unleash Creativity Engage in imaginative exercises that nurture self-confidence and make the creative process enjoyable.
