Domestic Totems 2022
What if when not in use our tableware sets could become sculptural decorative elements for our home, instead of being hidden away in a cupboard?
Domestic Totems is series of sculptural tableware, a set of“modular” pieces that, when assembled together, function as sculptural decorative elements. At the same time, when taken apart, they can be used as a tableware set, for daily use (cups, jugs, plates, vases…).
This collection wants to rediscover tableware as the centre of our personal as well as collective rituals: a series functional sculptures which remind us of the importance of treasuring mindful daily rituals, being it your first coffee in the morning or indulging yourself with a special snack, let’s celebrate it as an art.
Domestic Totems started during my residency at Numeroventi in Florence in 2021 and is an ongoing project.
