Bread for the World is a community-based workshop created by artist Tiziano Cruz as part of his performance Wayqeycuna.

Bringing together art and community, the workshop invites participants to bake bread as a gesture of remembrance, an offering for those who have passed on and now dwell in the ancestral realm. The process becomes a shared ritual, blurring the line between artistic and communal practice.

In each place the work travels, Cruz conducts local research and collaborates with community members. On this occasion, he will work with the local community and audience to bake together the bread that will become part of the stage show.

The workshop lasts around 3 hours and is open to all, with no age limit or previous experience required. It’s an opportunity to connect, to one another, to the past, and to the act of making, as a way of thinking together about who we are, and who we remember.

This workshop is delivered in Spanish with an English Translator.
