The Coffee Exchange
The coffee ceremony is an integral part of daily life in Ethiopian society and a time to slow down and reaffirm social connections. Participants engaged in this honored tradition with artist Tsehai Johnson. The Coffee Exchange is an ongoing project designed to affirm identity and social connections by sharing culturally specific ritual drinks amongst strangers. Participants are encouraged to contribute to the future of this project by sharing their responses and, in exchange, may keep their cup from this participatory event.
