Future School Food Foraging is a week-long project in local foraging and sustainability that will take place on-site, in and around Venice, with the Italian/Korean team searching out crabs, fish and wild plants and hoping for the opportunity to meet a Venetian squid. Also marked for collection (and consumption) is kelp, a common foodstuff in East Asia but considered to be invasive algae in Venice, disturbing the ocean ecosystems. The expedition and its results will be recorded, exhibited and archived within Future School.
