"'Educational Complex' is a model of every school I ever went to, plus the home I grew up in, with all the parts I can’t remember left blank. They’re all combined into a new kind of structure that looks like a kind of modernist building. I started to think about this structure through the Gesamtenswerk, the ‘total artwork’, of Rudolf Steiner, where he tries to combine all the arts and develop a kind of rule system according to which every art form is related."

Eating in Public at the Creative Time Summit
A talk by Gaye Chan and Nandita Sharma.
Eating in Public has utilized guerilla Papaya gardening, an independent rhizomatic recycling program, and a chain of anti-capitalist free stores to challenge authoritarian power structures and the system of private property/public state. The collective embodies a D.I.Y. ethos, creating local mimetic project structures that encourage people to share, replicate, and expand the work. Building on the work of the 17th century Diggers, Eating in Public actively attempts to reclaim and expand the egalitarian commons in the middle of capitalist society. Most recently, Eating in Public has independently designed, installed, and documented easily replicable recycling bins throughout the island of O’ahu.
