Setting the Table

Setting the Table explores how art, architecture, and public space can act as participatory platforms for connection and cultural exchange. The project, a ceramics workshop and exhibition space, integrates ritual and performance to transform public space into a hub for social interaction and community cohesion. Designed for a multicultural community, it fosters inclusivity through creative activities like making and dining, breaking down barriers to participation. Participants move beyond spectatorship, engaging as active contributors to shared cultural expression. Setting the Table demonstrates how art, architecture, and performance can celebrate diversity, strengthen community bonds, and amplify stories within a multicultural landscape.
