AMINA
A refugee who dreams of sharing culture through food but lacks access to a kitchen and market opportunities.

She struggles to find affordable spaces for cooking and selling her dishes.

Seeks a community kitchen and market that supports her culinary entrepreneurship and cultural access.

THE HUMAN APPROACH
At the core of any human, there is one central factor that sets us apart from every other mammal.
Funny enough, it’s not love.
Some might say it’s ego—the need to be it.

But it is actually the need to carve out a space where we are seen, where we belong.

It’s this fundamental drive for presence—for meaning—that became the starting point for this project.

Threads is Amina, a refugee chef.
She carries her culture through her food, through recipes that tell stories in spices and textures.
But in her new home, she faces a familiar invisibility: the lack of access to a legal, safe, and welcoming kitchen.

This project doesn’t aim to “help” Amina.
