About the work

A closer look.

Name a dish and the place it comes from. Rem traces it the slow way: real sources for the technique and its history, then the place itself walked on maps where a camera exists. You get one short piece of writing about the dish and one rendered image of the plate. Rem says plainly what is sourced and what is her own reading. The image is a rendering, never a photograph. If the dish cannot be grounded in real sources, Rem tells you and you pay nothing.
