People’s kitchen Tromsø, is working in the field of "socio-political functional art." Traditional North Norwegian values as dugnad, volunteerism, unity, cooperation and friendship across social, cultural and age differences are part of our philosophy. In our work we focus on how ar

t can contribute to knowledge production in society and explore how alternative structures can operate in parallel with a capitalistic system - a form of constructive resistance that works from the inside, and is productive rather than critical. Overall, residents in Norway throw away over 300 000 tons of food that could have been eaten. Food waste is an unnecessary source of pollution and CO2 emissions, which contribute to global warming and climate change. People’s kitchen Tromsø’s solution to this problem is to create social events where residents can discuss and learn more about food waste, while one is in the making and eating food that is discarded.

Tromsø Folkekjøkken, arbeider innen for en kunst retning som kalles "sosio-politisk funksjonell kunst." Vi undersøker kunst i offentlige rom, byutvikling og deltar i prosjekter som engasjerer publikum. Tradisjonelle nordnorske verdier som dugnad, samarbeid og vennskap på tvers av sosiale, kulturelle og aldersforskjeller er en del av vår filosofi. I vårt arbeid har vi fokus på hvordan kunsten kan bidra til kunnskapsproduksjon i samfunnet og utforsker hvordan alternative strukturer kan operere parallelt med et kapitalistisk system - en form for konstruktiv motstand som fungerer fra innsiden, og er produktiv istedenfor kritisk. Hver beboer i Norge, kaster 46 kg mat hvert år. Totalt kaster innbyggere i Norge over 300 000 tonn mat som kunne vært spist. Matavfall er en unødvendig kilde til forurensning og utslipp av CO2, som bidrar til global oppvarming og klimaendringer. Tromsø Folkekjøkken løsning på dette problemet er å skape sosiale møteplasser hvor innbyggerne kan diskutere og lære mer om matavfall, samtidig som en er med å lage og spise mat som kastes. Kvensk

Tromssan kansanköökki työtelee taijealala joka oon sosiaalipoliittinen ja funksunaalinen., Tutkima taijetta julkisissa paikoissa kaupunkikehitymistä ja prosekti stimuleeraa pyblikymin osalistumista. Perinteiset pohjaisnorjalaiset arvot, ko dugnad, vapaaehtoisuus, yhtenäisyys, yhtheistyö ja ystävyys sosiaalisten, kulttuuristen ja ikäerojen välilä, oon osa meiän filosofiaa. Met fokuseeraama siiheen kunka taije saattaa olla myötä produseeraamassa tietoa meiän yhtheiskunnasta, ja tutkima kunka vaihtoehtoiset struktuurit saattaavat toimiat paralellisesti kapitalistisen systeemin kansa – haluma rakentavan vastusliikheen mallin, joka toimii sisältä käsin ja oon produktiivinen kriittisen sijhaan. Jokhainen Norjan asukas heittää pois 46 kg ruokaa vuosittain. Yhtheensä Norjan kansalaiset heittäävät pois yli 300 000 tonnia syömiskelpoista ruokaa. Ruuan tuhlaus oon tarpheeton saasteitten ja CO2-päästöitten lähet, joka tuottaa ilman lämpenemistä ja ilmastonmuutosta. Tromssan kansanköökin ratkaisu tähän probleemhiin oon luoa sosiaalisia tapattumia joissa ihmiset saattaavat porista ja oppiat lisää ruuan tuhlauksesta samala ko net yhessä tekkeevät ja syövät poisheitettyä ruokaa.

What exactly are we eating? Where does it come from? How does it end up on our plate? 🍽️

Many of us are extremely disconnected from the food we eat - not knowing where it really comes from or how it is grown. Supermarkets and big food businesses play a large role in this, creating an illusion of endless abundance and selling food packaged in plastic.

Instead of being passive consumers, let’s reconnect with our food and the process of farm to fork! By becoming active food citizens we can take part in shaping our food system, for our health and our planet 💪
