Terra Firma: An Invitation to Re-Examine Our Relationship with Food and the Environment
Food is an essential part of our lives, yet we often take it for granted. We consume it without much thought, ignoring the impact it has on our bodies and the environment. The Terra Firma installation challenges us to re-examine our relationship with food and the environment, and to think more deeply about the way we eat and live.
Terra Firma is more than just an installation. It's an invitation to slow down, appreciate the food we eat, and connect with the ingredients in front of us. The table's surface incorporates food production and waste, highlighting the importance of sustainability and the interconnectedness of all things.
The table's design encourages mindful eating, reminding us to touch, smell, and taste with full attention. It's a sharing plate, a serving vessel, and a topographic surface that fosters a stronger connection to food. By doing so, Terra Firma encourages us to live more mindful, meaningful lives.
One of the most unique features of Terra Firma is its ability to grow sprouts on the table surface. This reminds us of the life cycle of food in our daily lives and encourages us to think about how we can incorporate food production and waste into the surface of a table. This installation serves as a conversation starter and a call to action to think about what and how we eat.
Terra Firma is a space for quiet reflection and contemplation. It reminds us of the beauty and value of simple things, and encourages us to appreciate the food we have. The table is made of red clay, coffee grounds, and food industry waste, as well as leftovers from previous Terra Firma installations, creating a closed-loop system.
By incorporating food production and waste into the surface of the table, Terra Firma offers a unique perspective on the importance of sustainability and the interconnectedness of all things. It encourages us to think more deeply about the impact of our actions on the environment, and to make more mindful choices in our daily lives.
