The Feast Exhibition

The Feast Exhibition

This exhibition was conceived to focus on the current rise of food, eating and cooking
in contemporary culture, including popular TV programs, increased awareness of
what we consume, and global socio-political aspects of hunger.

In this installation, Jacaranda Kori creates a 2-meter ceramic fountain filling it up with
endless introverted, self-contained and restrained  objects which expose what lies behind and underneath, as an analogy to the soul’s inner struggles and mysteries. These ceramic motifs used as her inspiration, tracing the internal structure of the nature of things, drawing it outside and freezing it on the surface as fossilized imprints of memory of past life.  On every floor of the fountain there is a variety of object some connected to nature, some with culinary connotations and many integrated with sexual elements such as a metaphors for the life instinct that create small quasi-cultic objects, offerings emanating a seductive sweetness from their details handled with such care.
