A Seat At The Table with Joke Amusan

Saison 3 · Épisode 2

mercredi 18 septembre 2024 • Durée 31:07

Welcome back to A Seat At The Table with Spare Ribs Club!

In this podcast, creator of Spare Ribs Club Alex Holker talks to guests about their dream feminist dinner party. From their 3 feminist guests, the 3 tunes that will be on repeat all evening, and the 3 courses being served, this podcast brings together conversations around feminism, music and food.

In this episode, Alex talks to Joke Amusan. Joke is a German-Nigerian textile artist based in London. Her art practice highlights the experiences and complex beauty of what it means to be a Black woman – through the exploration of identity and heritage. Joke’s art pieces are conversational, encouraging women to come together to share their stories and to embrace who they are unapologetically. She strives to help build community by bringing people together and sharing space together through her creative workshops. Her work has been exhibited in the UK, USA, Germany, and Switzerland. In 2022 she was nominated for the “Female Founder” award in The Independent Awards, and in 2023 she was a finalist in The Ingram Prize.

We discuss Joke's dream feminist dinner party, starting with a wonderful guest list; writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, artist Carrie Mae Weems and activist Malala Yousafzai. Set against a soundtrack of Little Simz, Cleo Sol and Andra Day, they start with summer rolls with peanut dipping sauce, followed by jollof rice, plantain and chicken, and finishing with apfelstrudel. We discuss how her feminism intersects with her work as an artist and her identity as a Black woman.
