Description
This panel discussion for the 2025 edition of Peckham24 delved into the dynamic intersections of community, food, and culture, bringing together artists who use their creative practices as tools for social connection, cultural reflection, and resistance.Chaired by socially engaged artist Anthony Luvera, this panel discussion featured Rajyashri Goody, whose project Eat With Great Delight sheds light on the systemic oppression of the Dalit community in India and the vital role food plays in shaping their identity, and Becky Warnock, who is presented the live artwork A Welcome Table as part of Peckham24.
The discussion explored how food functions both as subject and medium—offering insights into heritage, social justice, and collective memory. Through photography, performance, and storytelling, each artist examines how shared meals, culinary traditions, and cultural rituals shape identity and foster connection. Together, they will reflect on how their work preserves heritage, nurtures belonging, and brings people together across generations and geographies.
