From the Series
"Baked" by Formafantasma is a collection of containers and vessels made from a material based on ingredients found in the kitchen such as flour, coffee, cocoa and spinach, mixed together with other natural products such as salt, shellac and spices to make the objects durable.
It is inspired by a Sicilian folk event in Salemi, where a flour-based material is used to create architectural decorations. The project is a homage to bread and flour – primordial and essential materials that accompany our daily life – and to the craftsmanship of baking and cooking.
