The Fiumicina is an open kitchen by the river, where food supply is no longer a purely private act of consumption, but a communal activity. The many hands involved in preparing a meal are given visibility (from harvesting to processing and preparation). The public space offers the ideal framework for initiating collaborative processes as a means of shaping environmentally conscious daily practices.
Through the practical and immediate context of cooking together, Fiumicina is designed to make the transformative power of elements such as the sun and water perceptible, graspable and thinkable in order to reconsider their availability, scarcity or abundance.
Fiumicina is a project by Johanna Dehio, Mascha Fehse, Johanna Padge for FLUX – River interventions and explorations: a multi-year programme conceived by Lungomare in which observation of and interaction with Bolzano’s river landscapes take place from various perspectives.
