Scratch Kitchen
A three day experimental collaborative kitchen-diner at the Spyglass Restaurant, Bristol. 2004
Starting from scratch, artist and would-be chef Dominic Thomas created a unique restaurant/kitchen environment in the Spyglass restaurant awning which explored and exploded the myths and realities of food, cooking and eating. In collaboration with Bristol’s Byzantium & Glassboat restaurants head chef Vincent Castellano and the general public Scratch Kitchen was a three day multi-media work in progress which questioned what we eat, where and with whom. The Kitchen mixed recipes from around the world and around the corner with forgotten histories, bad science and improvised performance in a collaborative event beyond classification.
