A TABLE STORY
The table dress decomposes, dematerializes, evaporates.
From the earth, our first table, but also the source of our nourishment, there are a series of sheets, soft, suspended, in different techniques, the engraving of the table becomes a pattern, the pattern decreases in density until it turns into embroidery, a thread that in addition to creating designs can break the next sheet, creating a hole, a series of holes to be exact, dishes falling, hanging, hanging .. dishes that become then network, minimal .. network holes through which it is possible see the last level, a cloth so light as to be invisible, also with an embroidery, many small holes hardly distinguishable ..
The dining room has had the same route over the centuries; from the heaviness of the rules that determined it, to the inconsistency of its function now.
The dining room dress is worn while sitting .. it is a clothing that completes the experience, which allows you to see the change, to live a moment and choose whether to share a meal or stay alone.
A table story is the story of a table, indeed, the portrait of a table never the same as itself, which changes according to the desires of man, his needs, the complexity of his society in which he lives.
