“Food was present along the exchanges, operations and interactions. It was a key element mediating encounters, taking part in the experience of being at the markets. Food topics often facilitated talks among market users, on what was valued at these markets, what traders were proud of offering and knowing about, and what customers looked for and were willing to exchange views about.
”
Food invites residents to connect and collectively participate in the making and envisioning of urban spaces. In that way, experiences around food lead to shape relations and arrangements towards common living, on top of experiences of social and spatial fragmentation in contemporary cities.
