title
My Dining Table
Cutlery are not only tools for eating but also play another important role.
With various arrangements, they can represent the level of satisfaction with the served meal.
In this series, each plate and cutlery setting has its own story.
In my ancient home with a noble heritage, plates are often empty or have unpleasant meals.
Economic, social, cultural, Political and environmental problems are ingredients of my meals.
Poor quality, insufficient quantity, not being properly served, sometimes being poisonous are among my complaints.
I complain about the unpleasant taste of war. The amount of food is not enough for the family and the water has run out to the last drop but despite these problems having a pleasant meal in a safe home is my dream.
