Engaging with Belfast’s hidden queer history, Phillip McCrilly will deliver a fermentation & foraging workshop taking the form of a collective bicycle jaunt to a number of noted ‘cruising’ spots in South Belfast.
Meeting at Catalyst Arts on the 6th October, participants would be given a brief overview of the project as well as a map and package of wild seeds. From there, the audience will travel on mass on an alternative mapping of South Belfast, encouraged to distribute their seeds en route.
At each spot, participants will be given a queer alternative reading of each of the locations, as well as an opportunity to ramble.
The trip will be followed by foraged and fermented refreshments (with a brief demonstration) back at the gallery and a chance to visit the installed ‘Disappearing Wall’ in Castle Court Shopping Centre.
PHILLIP MCCRILLY is a Belfast-based artist, curator and chef. Interested in the transgressive and interdisciplinary possibilities of food, hospitality and education, his work explores the idea of threshold in often collaborative forms.
