“Meal for seven billion Guests” Series
This series consists of felted fruit and vegetable compositions on a paper plate stand.

It is a unique opportunity to experience physically the same feelings as they did, like sitting at the same table together. The stand from plates hints at the number of people who have already tasted this dish and therefore united by common memories.
