with children from the visual arts workshop at the André Malraux Center in Rouen
with support from Virginie Bobin and Braïma Injaï


As part of the Grand Mare neighborhood's food art project, I created this video. Grand Mare neighborhood is located in the city of Rouen, where my school, ESADHaR, is also situated. Unlike the community environment in the city center, the residents here are primarily immigrants. In my interactions with them, I constantly see reflections of myself: we face the same challenges with language, food, and culture.

In the neighborhood, I met these children at Braïma Injaï's painting workshop. We connected through food, sharing our stories about it. For a child, they may not remember many other things from their home country, but food remains an indelible memory.

Eating is such an everyday activity. The things that gradually change our perception of food are like whispers, happening subtly between awareness and unawareness.


作为Grand Mare街区,食物艺术项目的一部分,我创作了这个视频。Grand Mare街区位于鲁昂市,也是我的学校esadhar所处的街区。与市中心的社区环境不同,这里的居民主要由移民组成,在与这些居民相处的过程中,我不断地看到自己的身影:我们面对同样的语言、食物、文化的挑战。

在街区中,我在Braïma Injaï的绘画工作室中遇到了这些孩子,我们用食物进行交流,我们分享彼此关于食物的故事。对于一个孩子来说,他们可能不会记得很多关于家乡的事情,但食物却是无法抹去的记忆。

吃,如此日常的一件事。那些一点一点改变我们对食物感受的事情,就像喃喃低语,在察觉与不察觉之间已然发生。
