P001 → Unusual Tableware
This series of unusual tableware explores the open-ended nature of eating by likening it to various types of utensils, viewing the act of eating with a humorous perspective. It delves into the possibilities of applying open containers in dining and captures these explorations through photography. From an experimental standpoint, the series interprets the modern pursuit of ritual and visual appeal in eating, which diminishes the original purpose of consuming food. Imagination, in turn, creates a new scene on the dining table.
This work is part of the group exhibition "Enjoy Your Meal", and is commisioned by Neiwei Arts Center, 2024.
此系列不尋常食器以類餐具比擬吃飯功能的開放性,從幽默的角度賞玩關於吃飯這件事的個人態度。探索開放性容器應用在飲食的可能性,並以攝影方式紀錄下來。以具實驗性的角度詮釋現代人吃飯所追求的儀式性及視覺先行,削弱吃飯最原始的目的性,想像力創造了餐桌上不一樣的風景。
