Open Kitchen TakeOver : Multilingual Recipes
VOKU, FreeShop & workshop with Anapofasisto (Athina Koutsiou)
hosted by the b.ASIC a.CTIVIST k.ITCHEN
organized by While Kitchen-ing
By visually mapping the forms and colors of the emotions around the table and engaging in shared dialogue, a shared meal is formed by the ingredients brought. The scraps are transformed into wearable masks that become symbols of protection, defiance, vulnerability, and power. The role of the mask is claimed not as an object to hide behind and act, but rather as a tool to express and reveal aspects of ourselves that remain hidden.
The act of wearing, sharing, and being in these masks playfully transforms into a participatory performance. The session invites reflection on how we act when emotions are visible and how using discarded materials can reshape our understanding of creativity and value. It asks: How can gestures of care and emotion around food be expressed and mapped as a language through creative making? Can transforming materials we consider scraps reshape how we understand creativity, value, and shared experience?
Disclaimer: This workshop doesn’t aim to fix, regulate nor deal with emotions, but rather honor and mobilize them, using art as a tool of self expression.

A handmade mask composed of onion, daikon, and mandarin peels is stitched together with blue embroidery thread and hangs below the title. The background is an old kitchen towel dyed with black bean water and layered with red plastic fruit netting. The mood is playful, slightly unsettling, and DIY]
