ON SHOW AT MILAN DESIGN WEEK

‘Technospoonism’ is a speculative collection of jewelry that functions as tableware — cuffs as plates, rings as forks, pendants as vessels.

It imagines a future kamayan, the Filipino dining practice of eating shared communal meals with the hands. It explores how rituals of eating might adapt in a technologically mediated, climate-altered future, extending the natural gesture of eating by hand into a new kind of kinetic choreography. ‘Technospoonism’ imagines how we might hold on to cultural traditions, not by resisting change, but by adapting our rituals, tools, and gestures.
