Cutlery
Issue one of Feast online explores a myriad of references to cutlery in visual culture in the first of a series of editions on ''Setting the Table'’. Cutlery presents a re-consideration of the utensils that are central to our everyday, from formal eating to the improvised utensils of street food stands. In each context the tools of eating become launch pads for the evocation of personal and social anecdotes. The literature of Roald Dahl, the Dada collages of Hannah Hoch and John Huston’s 1967 film Reflections in a Golden Eye are all such points of evocation in this issue with the sounds and textures of cutlery represented in contemporary art works by Edwina Ashton, Catherine Bertola, Rachael Colley, Daniel Fogarty, Franziska Lantz and Alex Michon.
