Consent?

In this piece, the design emerges as a tool for social criticism, questioning the
contemporary rituals of eating and pleasure at the table. It's a tray made up of bananas - a playful and ambiguous reference to the act of eating and the phallic symbol.

However, it is at the edges that discomfort sets in: pointed ceramic sticks emerge
aggressively, breaking with the expected harmony of the object. The piece invites the viewer to reflect on consumption as an act of power, on the body as symbolic territory, and on the boundaries between desire, pleasure, and invasion.
This piece proposes a new reading of the experience of eating: not just as nutrition or pleasure, but as a social and political gesture. How far do our everyday gestures reproduce invisible power structures? Which place does the body - and the other - occupy in the way we eat, share, and design objects?
