DROP
The series consists of hollow plaster casts. These sealed environments contain freeze-dried and vacuum packed food ingredients as well as tools.
Whilst the outer shells serve a practical or decorative purpose, the concealed contents bear a more fundamental potential. Each capsule holds a special meal, ready to be prepared at any precious moment in our future lives.
"They are monoliths made from eternal matter, yet they are fragile, they live till a moment of inadvertence, festivity, or hardship. Then they shatter and free their contents to allow for a special feast."
