Norwegian Siri Brekke’s ceramic tableware varies in style from project to project, but each piece is equally eye-catching.
1. There are white plates printed with lifelike images of the world’s four most common foods: rice, corn, wheat and potato.
2. Fruit Trays that look like reverses of the featured fruit, complete with indentations painted to match the fruit.
3. These are Tableware Stories speech bubbles placed on traditional ceramic plates.
4. 'Being worlds apart’ is a plate collage depicting a world map.
