A pop-up cafe serving American signal crayfish from the River Thames. Crayfish Bob’s explored the issue of invasive species and (in a small way) helped to eradicate the American Signal Crayfish by eating them! This species has already almost wiped out the UK’s native white-clawed crayfish and is plentiful in our waterways. Meanwhile we import most of the crayfish we eat in the UK from China.
Commissioned by Artsadmin for the Two Degrees Festival with: Fisherman Bob Ring (Crayfish Bob), Design by Lizzie Clachan, Food Design by Blanch and Shock. Conceived and curated by Clare Patey.
