Fotini Gouseti’s on-going project is inspired by a custom found in areas of Macedonia, where a dinner set is a very typical wedding present. Newly married couples end up with many more dinner sets than they could ever possibly use. They keep what they need, exchange some at shops, and keep the rest in order to offer them as wedding presents at some other wedding. As a result ‘the least wanted dinner sets’ travel endlessly.
During the course of the exhibition the public is warmly invited to contribute to this project by donating their least wanted dinner set in order for it to travel.
It is up to them to decide what a less wanted dinner set could be. Maybe one that was offered to them but they don't like and don't want to use? Maybe a dinner set that is not in fashion? A very cheap one? One in bad condition? Maybe one that is "too much"? Or...
Gouseti is very interested in the story behind this ‘least wanted item’ as
well; therefore she invites the visitors to contribute their stories and explanations!
