Artist’s Talk - Colonial Appetites: Sugar’s Journey from Royal Tables to Indigenous Communities

Facilitated by Dr Miki Seifert and Dr Arini Loader

In the third of three artist’s talks about Azúcar/Sugar, the latest installation from With Lime, join Dr Miki Seifert and Dr Arini Loader at ‘The Colonisers’ Banquet Table’. Dr Seifert will talk about how sugar was transformed from an exotic luxury item into a global ubiquity. Dr Loader will use te reo Māori as a gateway to talk about sugar’s associated health and societal issues along with alcohol and other colonial introductions.
