I wanted to play with creating a luxurious and glamorous table setting in the middle of an abattoir - what would it look like and how could flowers, candles and napkins make death beautiful?

I cut life-size meat shapes from polystyrene and used the company's ceramics to create the effect of skin, flesh and bones.

Obtaining the right colour and consistency took many attempts.

The roses poured from the crystal candelabra into the blood table.

Guests loved interacting with the table.
