Saraid de Silva is an Artist Who Eats

For a special one-off season, Sam Low and Jean Teng talk to four Artists Who Eat, making a dish in response to their work, discussing how food intersects with their practice, and having a general kõrero about their relationship to food. In this episode, we make prawn sambal curry for Saraid de Silva, a Sri Lankan-Pākeha author of the novel Amma, who says she "came out of the womb asking what's for dinner". This episode is made thanks to funding from Foundation North. P.S. We also made a zine!! If you want to read Artists Who Eat in zine form, you can download the free PDF from our website ate-ate-ate.co.nz. Follow Saraid de Silva. Buy Saraid's book, Amma. Follow Ate Ate Ate on Instagram.
