FEEDING FONT
My inspiration comes from the poem by Wang Wei, a Tang Dynasty poet, which depicts the deep longing between relatives and lovers in two different places. This emotion made me think about how to create an “intimate” atmosphere at the table, using food as a bridge to not only satisfy the taste buds, but also promote interaction between people at both ends of the table.
