‘rest’ experience
at: wageniegen, netherlands
from: july 20 to september 21, 2008

we recently came across ‘rest’ a public art installation created by dutch artists martijn engelbregt and miguel brugman. engelbregt was invited to create the installation as part of a summer arts festival. not only is it an art installation but it also a dining experience. he was inspired whilst cooking and realised how much food he wasted and in turn wanted to make people aware of how much food gets wasted in households. food served include edible wild plants that are gathered from the local area, cooked by engelbregt. the idea of ‘rest’ came from picnic tables that are often located along major highways around the world known as rest stops.
