A talk on the issues of unsustainable production, food waste, environmental cost and new technologies. Presented by Professor Duncan Cameron.
The Project
Artist Jo Peel has collaborated with Professor Duncan Cameron, co-director of the University’s Institute for Sustainable Food, to produce this sculptural installation and associated thought-provoking film about our changing relationship with food during lockdown. When panic buying hit the news, many of us realised for the first time that food sustainability and food security are issues that affect us all. Common Ground deals with people’s real experiences and highlights the importance of Duncan’s research on urban farming and alternative methods of food production.
The exhibition is situated in Protopia and is available to view online.
