BREAD AS SOCIAL SCULPTURE

Bread Houses Networks in Bulgaria is a very interesting organisation that connects people and cultures through bread. Bread used to be a very important part of Bulgarian culture but has slowly died and given way for white, commercial bread baked in one of four national bakeries. Bread Houses Networks wants ro reclaim not only the bread traditions with all its rituals and nutritious, delicious bread but also the sharing and aesthetics of bread making. I was invited there to do a workshop in Plovdiv and also made a bread book that is now installed in the newly refurbished bakery.
Thank you Nadia Savova Grigorova, Silviya Terziyska and Evgeni Mitev for being such wonderful hosts.
