8 AT THE TABLE
Marineta Cassiana
APROSDECO, a non-profit association made up of mothers, fathers, relatives and guardians of people with intellectual disabilities in the Marina Alta, has designed and produced the exhibition "8 AT THE TABLE".
An exhibition in which the 8 ARTS paint, cook, dance, sculpt, touch, write and build the route of the D*na Festival throughout the Marineta Cassiana.
Each Installation is a testimony with a "creatively diverse" look and perspective where APROSDECO users present us with their talents, demonstrating that art is everywhere.
- BODY OF EIGHT GAZES (Sculpture)
Large-scale sculptural intervention inspired by the human figure, the plastic languages of the avant-garde and the typical illustrations of three users of the Aprosdeco association. Through abstract shapes, perforations, combinations of materials and a rich chromatic palette, the pieces integrate elements that represent the seven Fine Arts, adding gastronomy as an eighth one.
- FLAVOUR PALETTE (Painting)
A creation with which to explore how ingredients become elements of visual, sensory and cultural expression, merging painting with gastronomy. Cardboard, recycling and geometry that is eaten with the eyes. A tribute to cooking as art and to chefs as artists.
- VINYL RECIPE WITH CHEF (Music)
A sound-gastronomic tribute. Cuisine becomes a song and the dish with its recipe becomes a dance floor. This installation of 100 vinyls invites you to stop, listen with your eyes and savour with your imagination. Tributes and visual sound.
- SOUP KEYS (Sculpture)
Liquid symphony. This particular piano becomes a sculptural body that is built from cuisine. This work evokes the balance between the visual and the functional, between taste and sound. Wooden spoons creating melodies. Cuisine can also be heard.
- FLAVOURS THAT INHABIT (Architecture Menu)
This artistic installation transforms a classic four-course menu (appetizer, starter, main course and dessert) into dishes modelled with clay, recreating typical Mediterranean architectural constructions. Home is gastronomy.
- ROOT IN MOVEMENT (Dance and Sculpture)
With this intervention, dance, sculpture and gastronomy are combined, seeking to communicate that both the body in movement and the food that nourishes us are living expressions of sensitivity, memory and creativity regardless of conditions, origins or age.
- DRY ART (Painting)
Inspired by Joan Miró, this installation of large, illustrated looms, hung like hanging sheets, represents a visual tribute to the Fine Arts, unified through gastronomy. The installation makes the sublime of art embrace the everyday of daily life.
- SALTY WORDS (Literature)
Each letter is an ingredient, each word a dish, each text a banquet. This monumental typewriter stages shows how language and cuisine are interwoven to form identities. Cuisine can also be written.
- WATERMELON PENTAGRAM (Sculpture)
Sculpture that unites visual art, gastronomy and music in a plastic symphony. Through the use of everyday materials reinterpreted with an artistic eye, this work turns the act of cooking into an experience.
- EDIBLE CINEMA (Cinema)
The work transforms the iconography of cinema into an expanded culinary language. A mural installation that pays homage to the aesthetics of classic and popular cinema, using the visual language and creative adaptation of the film poster as a starting point.
