Food on the Table

Marre Moerel presents Food on the Table, a new collection of ceramic tableware consisting of jugs, plates, serving trays and other related objects.

The pieces of this complete collection are cast directly from animal organs, such as cow hearts, pig intestines, sheep brains, and bull testicles. The shape and function of each object was derived from it’s original, natural form, without further manipulation or ‘design’.

Through this process of immortalizing the animals interior, Moerel confronts us with the brutality and animal instincts which exist in all of us.

At the same time, she shows us the beauty inherent in the rawness of nature, which we continue to be disconnected from, and which we can only hope to rediscover.
