North Lands Creative have welcomed their new programme coordinator for the new North Lands Creative Food Lab Kitchen project, Rudy Kanhye!
Rudy Kanhye is Creative coordinator of FLK (Food Lab Kitchen) community cafe at North Lands Creative and is also an artist and researcher, exploring collective food experiences through socially engaged food/art projects. He is examining the systems that organise the world through food. Using site-responsive installation, performance and video, he explores the overlapping boundaries between art, architecture, ecology and geopolitics. His practice uses food as a lens and tool to observe landscapes in transformation. He lives and works out of Lybster, Edinburgh and Hawick, UK. Through his own work and with FLK, he seeks to rethink the structures of food production, commodification and communality. He does this through participatory art interventions, curatorial projects and research, creating sensory and site-specific eating experiences. His poetic narratives of the journey from seed to table unpick the concept of ‘local’. His work is multi-disciplinary, strongly visual and often collaborative.
