Recipes for Disaster, workshop images, 2021


This creative writing workshop explores ways to prepare, create and transform in the face of disaster: from personal and political heartbreak to austerity, illness, climate emergency, and whatever else the future may have in store. 

Thinking about the recipe as a minor genre that embraces both practical instruction and wonderous alchemy, participants are guided through the process of writing recipes for disaster that mix ingredients for sustenance, indulgence, survival and insurrection.

This workshop was originally created for Interior/Interior, an event curated with Zoë Mendelson at Chelsea Space, London in 2021.  Later that year, Recipes for Disaster was also hosted for Net//Work participating artists at Wysing Arts Centre.
