Plateful insights
“Plateful Insights” is a collection of six hand built ceramic plates, each a unique narrative about global nutrition. These plates are not mere dining accessories; they are a tactile exploration of data, a physical manifestation of statistics that often remain trapped behind the screens of our digital devices. Each plate represents one of the six regions of the world and is sized according to the difference between the average supply of kilocalories (kcal) of food per person per day and the minimum kcal requirement per person. Their final size reflects the surplus food available to people in each region, providing a visual and tangible commentary on the disparities and abundance in global food distribution. The donut charts break down the percentage of daily kcal intake derived from fats, animal and vegetable proteins, and carbohydrates. This tactile experience encourages a more intimate and reflective interaction with the data, fostering a deeper understanding of global nutrition issues.
