Day 1 On-site Construction in Agoza Market
The whole team convened in Agoza Market to begin the construction of a pop-up exhibition structure that would be used to showcase different food preservation techniques.
More information about techniques here:
Provocation Questionnaire – Food Preservation Techniques
The pavilion would include space for:
- Clay pot cooling (including Zeer Pot, Mitti fridge)
- Small scale hanging clay pots
- Terra cooling
- Food drying (spices)
- Canned food (jams)
- Mobile food cart prototypes
Together the goal of the pop-up pavilion is to not only showcase these preservation techniques to vendors within Agoza, but also to invite citizens and interested parties from across the city to learn and exchange information.
Day 2 On-site Construction in Agoza Market
The team, including members from Tena Kebena, as well as vendors from the market, worked throughout the day on the construction of the pop-up pavilion as well as develop the clay prototypes and mobile cart.
In the evening, Melat and Desalegn visited a group of mobile vendors that work primarily in the evenings from 6-9pm. This unique group of vendors work with very limited light presenting the team with new ideas and challenges in the development of the mobile cart prototype
