Dinner And A Movie

 Delicate Delicious Deed

Inspired by the movie Marie Antoinette

    This piece is about fragile femininity of another time period. It represents commencement of marriage and child. It represents virginity, or rather the taking of virginity. It represents the stress of concieving a child. It represents the requirement of a child to make a marriage "just", especially in the royal families of the world. Lastly, this tablescape represents overconsumption and the constant need for more. 

    I decided to make the tablescape for one person rather than multiple people to communicate the loneliness that the character experienced. I also wanted to communicate that the character had given birth or had sex, seeing as the cake is red. The red and white cake also represents the Austrian flag. Lastly, the overabundance of sweets, cigarettes, and drinks represents the overconsumption for unneccessary substances throughout the movie.
