Artist Mirna Bamieh creates spaces, installations, tables, performances and shared experiences that explore ideas of disappearance and memory. She is the founder of Palestine Hosting Society, a live art project that explores traditional food culture in Palestine, especially those that are on the verge of disappearing.

In this short film, Bamieh invites us into her kitchen and studio, and asks us to think about how cooking, fermentation and ceramics can open a space for mourning, resilience and the imagination of a different future.
