Hackney Art Week TALK - The convergence of food and memory with art
Join artist Annie Frost Nicholson and food writer and stylist Rosie French to explore the powerful interior worlds concocted in painting and cooking and how these may converge. Together we explore the role of food, painting and memory and how we can evoke dream dinner tables of imagined guests, otherworldly experiences and sanctuaries through our practice. Cooking and painting as an antidote in times of global crises.
Rosie French is a food writer, art director and hospitality consultant long fascinated with restaurant culture and how cooks and eaters use feeding and being fed as a way of honouring, setting and repeating core memories. She is interested in exploring how the repetitive, loving act of cooking shapes our experience of matriarchy and family.
Annie Frost Nicholson is a London-based interdisciplinary artist whose work examines some of the most uncomfortable and tragicomic aspects of the human condition. Annie’s painting practice has been shortlisted by John Moore’s Painting Prize 2025 and Delphian Gallery as one of the winners of their Open Call 2024 and she lectures part time in experiential design at Chelsea UAL. Annie’s public realm work intersects with her painting practice, which has evolved into large scale wall hangings with textile narratives, reflecting upon memory, the human condition, the stories we tell one another and how our cultural and anthropological experiences of the world coexist.
