FOOD IS A HUMAN RIGHT poster project is a SQUASH collaboration with artist Corbin LaMont that has come out of conversations on the state of current & historic enforced starvations in many places across the world. We put a call out for translations of the statement from our Squash community and have made posters in 13 languages so far. Albanian, Arabic, Bemba, Chinese, English, French, Gaeilge/Irish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Urdu & Vietnamese. In our local area there are upward of 25 different languages spoken between us all.
We launch the poster collection at Art & Soup Night when they will be available to purchase in the Squash shop. Profits from sales will go to Khartoum Aid Kitchen | Sudan Relief and our own Soup it Forward campaign. If you’re not able to come, posters will be for sale in the Squash shop or you can donate here.
Come by for a bowl of soup available to purchase in the cafe. There’ll also be space to respond to the statement in writing & drawing. Big love & thanks to Edi, Waseilah, Hellen, Chileshe, Zilan, Julie, Maria, Niamh, Angelica, Fabio, Anita, Asia, Gabriella, Isaac, Rachael, Saad, Saad’s mum and Anna for translation support.
