Overview

Layered investigations into the ecological and agricultural concerns of the Turner Prize-nominated artist duo Published with Fundación Botín. This volume traces the evolving practice of the British artist duo Cooking Sections--founded in London by Daniel Fernández Pascual and Alon Schwabe--whose work spans visual arts, architecture and ecology. Since 2013, they have been investigating anthropogenic infrastructures, industrial food systems and human-made climates: from artificially colored farmed salmon to ocean-filtering oysters. Their research-based practice exposes the legal, environmental and metabolic struggles behind what ends up on our plates, and simultaneously works to create prospects for the future. Waves Lost at Sea brings together six newly commissioned essays traversing legal fictions, queer ecologies, disappearing landscapes, multispecies entanglements and speculative tastes. Through these layered investigations, the book invites readers to rethink food cultures and agricultural imaginaries, decentering humans at both microscopic and planetary scales.
