make me! 2021

Bread is an intercultural link between almost all nationalities. In its symbolism, it refers to the same needs – the need to satisfy hunger and spiritual longing – dreams of a better life. Even in such a culturally and religiously homogeneous country as Poland, the symbolism and tradition inscribed in bread are identical with other cultures, so it can stand for a bond beyond divisions.

Publication

The prepared brochure introduces the subject of multiculturalism in Poland, as well as a description of the basic, universal ingredients necessary for baking bread and recipes inspired by nationalities described in the publication. It also presents tools, which are an integral part of the project.

Tools

The set of tools consists of 11 elements that anyone can use to bake bread at home. Each part is versatile and can be useful in the kitchen in different situations. Their design is a result of a careful analysis of the methods of baking bread in different parts of the world.
