Anden is a series of tableware inspire in the effort of cultures to modify nature to obtain food. The geography modifications are represented in a smooth manner in every piece. The exterior has a delicate resemblance to the field modification but the interior welcome food and the experience of food by providing an even smoother surface. In the case of Anden, it takes in consideration the elevations of the ceramic pieces as a new way of displaying meals.
This series make an effort to get away from the stereotypical image most people have about foreign culture. The objective is to show an acceptable and inclusive tool that could be put at use without alienating people.
