About the artwork:
Gathering to share a meal connects us to our communities in a ritual that offers the opportunity to pause, particularly after a very satisfying meal and uplifting camaraderie, and appreciate the effort and care demonstrated in every element. Digest is dedicated to every person and resource involved in the highly curated experience of dining – those who farmed and harvested, chopped and simmered, selected the perfect plate; the seeds, the water, the earth.
Painting the post-meal tablescape extends the invitation to mindfully absorb the experience – the company, the conversation, the sense memories – everything that made this meal one to savor long after the dishes have been washed.
