SOIL DINNERParticipatory event exploring the tuber as a metaphor of energy, care, and community. The project combined elements of food art, collective cooking, and storytelling.

Participants were invited to bake clay-covered potatoes in an outdoor fire, reflecting on the agricultural, mythological, and political layers of this humble root. Through shared preparation and eating, we discussed ideas of subsistence, reciprocity, and the underground networks that sustain both plants and human communities.

The event echoed traditional harvest celebrations such as wykopki—the communal potato digging gatherings marking the end of the growing season.
