This project begins by transforming a series of historical precedents through techniques of collage and the insertion of charged ritual objects. These collages give rise to three distinct three-dimensional spaces dedicated to gardening, dining, and cooking. By thoughtfully situating these spaces on a site, they seamlessly montage into a unified community kitchen, offering a diverse journey of spatial, programmatic, and geometric encounters.
