OF DEAD AND BREAD
TEAM: Rachid Jalloul – Lebanese
Man is dead
Heatless lump
To fire fed
Ashes drown
In stream so sound
Water the crops
In the ground
Wheat gets milled
On the hill
Flour baked
Bread its ate
A factory is directly linked to human consumption and to temporary use. Human beings, however, are also temporary, disposable, recyclable. Once they understand that they are temporary, consumption would becomes more reasonable, more proportional to one lifetime.
This crematorium bakery is set in a natural space. It is a public open space that allows reflection and rejuvenation.
