I have always found it interesting to work with food through ideas, distancing it from recipes and the manual skills of a craftsman to bring it closer to design and abstraction, a field that allows us to glimpse the near future.
The Fantasy Food pieces are models that lie on the fine line between the abstract and the figurative. They enable a world where gastronomy is imagined and constructed, detached from recipes, traditions, and conventions, to eventually, through design, become a way of thinking about the everyday that does not yet exist.
