Tunde Wey is a Nigerian immigrant artist, writer, and chef working at the intersection of food and the political economy. His work engages systems of power from the vantage point of the marginalized other, focusing particularly on how economics and finance impact the working-class Black community globally. Wey uses art, media, food, and dining spaces to confront disparities in material conditions and attempts interventions to address these socially constructed inequalities. Thursday, April 18
6–8 p.m.
Using food, spirits, and wine as an underlining theme, the Taft’s 2024 Duncanson-Artist-in Residence Tunde Wey and former Cincinnati council member, Yvette Simpson, will discuss economic concepts introduced in Tim Barker’s essay "Other People’s Blood." The pair will explore practical implications here in Cincinnati and then lead a Q&A about food, capitalism, and their intersectionality with race.
This is a FREE event! Registration required.
