The Leafy Green by Wild Feasties at Verge

Friends, Miamians, art lovers, lend me your palates.

Take a walk over to the Verge Art Fair until Dec 6 and enjoy the artistic interpretation of food - both visually and digestively - in this food-as-performance-art presented by Wild Feasties, "a collective of artists and naturalists...who[se] ... installation projects focus on creating and consuming delicious, local foods."

An interview with Wild Feastie (and daughter #2) Eliza Stamps (the other Feasties are Carissa Carman and Emily Bolevice) appears in full at Mango&Lime blog. A taste, so to speak:

How did Wild Feasties come about?
We are a collective that began hosting food events from a summer at Chashama North, a residency in Pine Plains, New York. We are all artists and naturalists, invested in the excitement of collaborating and resourcing innovatively.

What can people expect during Art Basel?
We will be presenting The Leafy Green, a tasting of delectable, innovative, yet incredibly simple local food.

In the context of Art Basel, we hope to delight the senses of a fresh market, with curiosity, generosity, play, community and nourishment, to offset the hyper-consumerism of art fair culture.
