Abstract [en]
In collaboration with Under ytan, a company cultivating algae locally on Åland, I have designed tableware made from and for algae-based food. Using the framework of the Set Table, I explore algae in a local context and reflect upon the usage of algae in marine restoration. The Set Table is full of symbols regarding culture, history, life and festivals. By gathering around the table, we share food, stories and create consciousness of the Baltic Sea.
