‘Sudah’ evolved out of an exploration of Moluccan roots. Jessica Voorwinde discovered how little was actually known about her family’s story of migration, even within the family itself. The project focuses on her mother and aunts, who migrated with their parents from Dutch New Guinea to the Netherlands in 1960. While it is an attempt to preserve her family’s stories and recipes for future generations, it is equally intended to uncover a chapter of Dutch history that is virtually unknown to many. Voorwinde explores cooking as memory, silence as survival, and what gets lost when stories are never passed on – an affectionate invitation to listen, to recognise, and to hold on to things we value.
