Food Stories is an embodied collaborative project developed and carried out together with Fighting Words Ireland and 80:20 Educating and Acting for a Better World.

The participatory project brought a group of fantastic people, seeking asylum and living in Direct Provision centres in Wicklow, Ireland, together for a journey of meeting each other and themselves, telling deeply valuable personal stories, sharing, caring, hearing, being heard and tightening the human connection. Between being, laughing, smiling, we pulled the project through bread workshops, cooking sessions, writing and educational activities. The moments are housed in a private, special understanding through memory.

This project was realised as part of Bray Literary Festival 2019.
