Home – a We Eatin’ Good zine
When A Rising Tide wrapped in 2024, we asked the Young Artistic Directorate to create a ‘resource’—a means of sharing their practical and experiential knowledge with other emerging creative practitioners.
This is what Matisse Laida had to share:
"When I started We Eatin’ Good, I was feeling incredibly
disconnected. To my family, to my own body, and especially to my
culture. I was craving the sense of Home. As the project has grown,
I have been immensely lucky to have met and worked with artists
and chefs who have shared these same feelings, and we all have
used food as a way of connecting back to Home, and to each other."
We Eatin’ Good
We Eatin’ Good! pictured is a collaborative food and cooking platform dedicated to amplifying young Queer, Black, Indigenous and People of Colour. Created by Matisse Laida, who works closely with Nisha Hunter, this platform engages with QPoC across the world and holds space for the community to share and consume a range of cooking practices, culture and knowledge in a safe and celebratory way.
