Bia! – meaning ’food’ in Irish and ‘come’ in Igbo – is a community storytelling project. Through the words and images of immigrant and diasporic communities in Ireland, Bia! seeks to document our commonality, counterbalance mainstream food narratives, and celebrate how immigrants and diasporas assert their presence in Ireland through food.
Bia! Zine Issue 002 is a bigger, bolder, more beautiful affair. It was produced with more support from the growing community surrounding this project, more time that comes with an unconventional and accidental two-year publishing cycle, and a clearer creative vision that came with Victory Nwabu-Ekeoma, editor, burrowing into the world of zine-making and indie publishing. While there's more experimentation in the design, size and feel of this issue, the collection of stories and images throughout the zine remains the same in essence - deeply personal and unapologetically for immigrants, by immigrants.
Bia! Zine is made up of the gorgeous words, stories, and art of over 30 contributors and guests from The Philippines, Nigeria, India, Ethiopia, Thailand, Palestine, China, the USA, Mexico, Brazil plus more who all call Ireland home or are creating a sense of home for themselves here.
