PACHA: earth, tierra, terra.
«In the Inca language “Quechua”, the meaning for pacha is earth, soil or space for life. This word circles everything we are doing with this piece of work. All the materials used in this project will come from the PACHA like the Murano glass, the Carrara marble and the food. Giving life to unique pieces crafted and design by the team.» D. Oka
For the second time Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC) and Perú Design Collective get together to present PACHA: Culinary design from Perú to Italy, an exposition housed and curated by Camp Design Gallery and Gala Fernández during Milano Design Week 2018 and would be developed in three consecutive and related workshops runned by Piopio Design Labs between Lima, Murano and Carrara with chef Diego Oka and designer Gala Fernández.
It is an experimental workshop of new crockery concepts for food. Seeking to recover peruvian cooking heritage and designing new products made of glass and marble that impact the way we experience peruvian food. This project intends to focus on the dialog between peruvian gastronomy and the italian manufacturing with established professionals and students from the Interior Design School of the Design Faculty of UPC. Their expression is inspired into the recognized peruvian food and now it is open to the world throught a banquet set up (of unique pieces) for the most sparkling week in Milan.
