The installation Dream Dinner Table was created by pupils from the elementary school at Tiistenjoki. Works of art that are related with food made out the point of departure for this installation. The children realized their ideas in workshops that were facilitated by food scientist Professor Anu Hopia, Sonja Jokiranta, who is CEO for the company Luovuuden Lakeus (plains of creativity), Joan Marie Kelly who is an artist, and Arun Yadav, who is a training and well-being instructor and art student. These workshops took place in the rural village of Tiistenjoki at Lapua in 2022. Each of the pupils from the elementary school participated in these workshops. Process descriptions in the form of menu cards are integrated in the installation. These works of art are joyfully anarchistic and boundary pushing. Eternal connotations, associated with food and community, are popping up from the works. Health-effects and traceability are not forgotten, either. Happiness, delicacy, sharing, and parties are, however, the most prominent features.
