Concept :
How many bites do you take with a meal? Again and again I have noticed the role of concentration in the experience of eating. It reminds me of some Asian dishes that are served in small portions measured for each bite. They encourage attention for the individual, as opposed to the large portions and "uneven pearls" on the hierarchical baroque table or the average Western lunch table. There is no hierarchy here in this dining table theatre, but there is identity. The actors are small vessels of geometric shapes combined in different proportions. No combination is like the other, and some are out of the ordinary. Together, they visualize a person's meal, divided into small and large bites and sips, each of which attracts attention.
