POTATOISM is not simply a theory, philosophy, or artistic framework. It is also a lived practice.
For more than three decades, Jeffrey Allen Price has engaged with the potato not only as a cultural symbol, historical subject, artistic material, and research interest, but also as a living presence in everyday life. Through gardening, cultivation, cooking, collecting, teaching, traveling, exhibiting, writing, and community events, the ideas explored through POTATOISM have continually intersected with direct experience.
The Living POTATOISM section documents some of these ongoing activities and long-term practices. Rather than focusing exclusively on exhibitions, publications, or collections, these pages explore how the potato has been integrated into daily life and sustained artistic inquiry over time.
The projects below demonstrate that POTATOISM is not merely something to think about—it is something to practice.
