Both individually and as part of her artistic working group Ali&Cia (Ali&Co in Spanish) Alicia Ríos has produced an extensive range of food related art projects, including sensory concerts and phagy rituals where reality is reinterpreted through food and devoured collectively.

Devorar Segovia
On June 6 Ali&Cia and Segovia 2016 presented Devorar Segovia. More than 90 of the city's citizens came together in six different groups over the course of a month to create a 24 m2 model of the city made entirely out of food. It's estimated that 1,500 people were served their city on a plate at the foot of the aqueduct by the light of the full moon. Check out the following videos (in Spanish):
