We are all systemically connected via things, the food we eat and the clothes we wear. Food and objects migrate and cross borders freely. But when people move, boundaries and hierarchies are recorded. Some get access, fulfilled dreams and work others are refused. Parcel is a scenographic installation that, through an 11-course dinner, tells stories about walks and food from very different positions in the system.

​

The meal is a meeting point that can both bring out the animalistic side in man and motivate absurdly civilized devices and rules for consumption. A dining situation transports you in time and place. Through the food and the way we consume it, a story is told about the systems, hierarchies, dreams and boundaries that some meet and others maintain.
