The Place and the Plate: the workshop
THE PLACE AND THE PLATE
A blend inspired by the East and the West, modernity and tradition, heritage and innovation: the similarities between Jim Thompson’s life, house and this project are so striking that “La Fête” could not have found a better “place” to serve its “plates”.
As Jim Thompson did in boosting up the silk industry by modernising it while keeping up its strong traditional identity., numerous designers have also used their culture in order to create a future that is rooted and makes references to the past, as they are faced to a world that is more and more homogeneous and standardized, by suggesting a new approach to the French tableware.
Accompanied by a background sound effect which brings out a culinary atmosphere, the exhibition will show videos of bars and restaurants that have been created by designers and will compare typical French and Thai tableware pieces and their role in enhancing creativity and know-how, in encouraging innovation. Thus the permanent pursuit of a new energy will be highlighted by reinterpreting tradition, integrating the use new techniques, new methods and new productions forms. In Thailand where the culinary art and ultra modern designs are of the essence, the “Place and the Plate” will find its place naturally!
Being the spearhead of “Fooding” = Food + Feeling), term invented by Alexandre Cammas at the beginning of the year 2000 to evoke alternative gastronomy by combining a pleasing atmosphere with pleasurable food(the pleasure of the place and the plate), the imagination of designers compete with the biggest table-ware factories.
Thus, to conclude this fourth edition, “La Fête” will invite its guests to taste a healthy menu created in the breast-shaped moulds of the artist, Pinare Sampitak for the pleasure the pupils and the taste buds.
Workshops will be organized before the exhibition period and for the opening ceremony with French designer Cédric Rogot and Anne Xiradakis and Thai designers: Rachaporn Choochuey and Pim Sudhikam.
