The Exquisite Disaster of Eating
2022
Aspen wood and different food.The table is such an important element when eating, it’s usually covered to avoid staining it, and preserving the beauty of wood. My aim for this project was to do exactly the opposite, appreciate the beauty of natural pigments on wood through the messy act of eating tacos. (Embracing all those food stains).
I approached this project in an experimental way by first hand carving intuitively a piece of aspen wood and cooking vegan tacos. I chose Aspen wood due to its absorption and light colour properties.
