With a background in cheese and wine, she focuses on sustainable ancestral methods of food production and the process that transform flavours within and between food. She uses storytelling approach as an accessible way to share knowledge whilst using our senses to reconnect to our bodies.
After a successful pilot micro residency and day event in 2023, Body Remedy returns to Cove Park for a week-long group residency and day event as part of our ongoing partnership. Body Remedy, based in Glasgow, is an organisation that centres physical practice for self-recovery. Contributors and participants of Body Remedy are Black people and people of colour (BPOC) who identify as women and non-binary. They organise as a small team led by founder and former Cove Park resident Mele Broomes in collaboration with Lead Producer Zoë Zo Tumika.
On 28 September 2024, Body Remedy hosted a second forming ecology day event. This was a space for creativity, reflection, connecting with community, and resting. The event included movement workshop led by Mele Broomes and Simone Seales, a painting workshop with Adebusola Ramsay and artist talks with Titilayo Farukuoye, Peju Alatise, and Alberta Whittle, as well as an opportunity to spend time around Cove Park.
