The project produced the constitution of a mobile confectionery representing the harmonious cohabitation among different Mediterranean cultures, by offering its special sweets.
Almost one year on, Catherine Corent (Babelmed) goes back to analyse the impact of the Love Difference Project.
Fillipo Fabbrica, the manager of the Love Difference project, argues that the kitchen is often seen as an ancestral heritage, the expression of its roots and traditions. If Love Difference is aimed at fostering intercultural dialogue, he reminds us, we should first “enquire on the reality of traditional dishes”. By questioning traditions and allowing them to mingle, this first meeting of Love Difference Pastries actually proposes to look for an identity as open as possible.
