SUMMARY:Los Sabores de Hogar: The Transformation of Memory and Identity Thr
 ough the Food Practices of Colombian Migrants in Montreal
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nLos Sabores de Hogar: The Transformation of Memory and Id
 entity Through the Food Practices of Colombian Migrants in Montreal\n\n\n\
 n\n\n\n\n\nThis exhibit features the collaborative MA oral history researc
 h of Hannah Pinilla and her interview partners. Her research explores how 
 the narrations\, consumption\, and preparation of ‘home foods’ facilit
 ates interactive\, diasporic ‘memory work’.\n\nIn fall 2023\, Hannah c
 onducted two collaborative oral history interviews with nine Colombian mig
 rants\, both voluntary and forced\, living in Montreal and Longueuil. In t
 hese interviews\, participants were asked to narrate food-centred memories
  and explore foodwork as a form of diasporic storytelling.\n\nThis researc
 h suggests that Colombian migrants bridge the past and the present\, the h
 ere and there\, and the then and now of the two social realities that they
  inhabit through quotidian\, interactive\, and embodied enactments of memo
 ry. Moreover\, Hannah defends the value of recipe and food sharing in fost
 ering a reciprocal and productive research relationship with migrant commu
 nities. The exhibit is a work of public history creation\, featuring video
  installations and sensory memory prompts. It is intended to engage partic
 ipants and visitors in reflections on food-centred practices of life histo
 ry narration and storytelling.\nAbout the speaker:\nHannah Pinilla is an o
 ral historian and MA student in public history with a specialization in di
 gital humanities at Carleton University. Her SSHRC-funded master’s resea
 rch project\, “El Sabor del Hogar: The Transformation of Identity and Me
 mory Through the Food Practices of Colombian Migrants in Quebec\,” engag
 es nine Colombian migrants\, living in Montreal and Longueuil in oral hist
 ory interviews facilitated through cooking sessions\, to explore how the n
 arration\, preparation\, and consumption of ‘home foods’ is a form of 
 embodied and interactive diasporic memory work.\n\nHer research question w
 as guided by her own lived experiences as the granddaughter of a first-gen
 eration Colombian-Canadian: how does the dialectical relationship between 
 identity and memory manifest through food practice and what impact does it
  have on the process of home-building?\n\nhttps://www.concordia.ca/cuevent
