| House of Today is proud to unveil the awe-inspiring creations of Lebanese ceramicist Souraya Haddad fused with the culinary works of art by Balbosté, during a private viewing in Paris. This unprecedented showcase, commissioned by House of Today, coincides with Paris + by Art Basel. |
| On display will be an aesthetic, multi-sensory dialogue between eternally unique pieces, along with unparalleled culinary experiences, bringing to life boundless creativity. The intent of ‘Ceramic Banquet’ is to shed light on the flair for life and conviviality that characterizes Lebanon and its people, despite all the dire circumstances that the country continues to endure. |
| Souraya designed a series of dishes, cups, bowls, vases and candelabras, made up of different volumes, layers and forms that will be showcased at ‘Ceramic Banquet’. Her artistic process begins with crafting the object, followed by enameling, to introduce a shadowy glow to the base. Each piece entices every sense, from the gaze, to that of touch. The objects within the collection serve as a powerful, yet delicate focal point, as guests explore the naturally pigmented enameled pieces in shades of grey, beige and hues of bluish pearl-grey. |
| House of Today, a non-profit organization, committed to cultivating a sustainable design culture in Lebanon that transcends borders, is proud to support Souraya Haddad. Since 2012, the organization’s overarching aim is to strengthen the dialogue in the design world, shedding light on contemporary Lebanese designers and their creative processes, as part of a grander thriving ecosystem.
