“Sur fils de cuivre” unfolded as a dialogue between copper, craftsmanship, and cuisine, inspired by the exhibition of Augusta Lardy and Marie Hazard at Galería Belmonte.
A conversation between materials and technique, all threaded by copper — both as inspiration and tangible presence throughout the gallery and the supper clubs.
The Installation
We explored copper not only as a metal but as a metaphor for oxidation, transformation, and connection.
Its presence extended across the table, the space, and the dishes, linking every gesture, flavor, and texture in a shared reflection on process and impermanence.
The set featured a copper-covered tabletop, bespoke aluminum candleholders, hand-dyed placemats, and a welcoming installation quail egg composition that reinterpreted the weavings, paintings, and material contrasts from the exhibition.
Every element was designed to echo the dialogue between the artists, translating their visual and tactile language into the culinary experience.
“(...) I see our works gathered like a forest, creating paths, depths, and proximities between them. Imagine a dance of shadows and light, of colors and threads oscillating in the air like a mobile. (...)”
—Excerpt from the text by Gema Melgar.
The Menu
Through the design and execution of their menu, chefs Marta Moya and Alice Reydet translated the visual and material dialogue of artists Augusta Lardy and Marie Hazard into a unique culinary experience.
Each dish explored the concepts of oxidation, layering, repetition, and transformation, reflecting the materials and techniques at the heart of the exhibition.
The Artist's Statement
Augusta Lardy and Marie Hazard create a continuous conversation through their work, where materials, light, and texture speak as loudly as brush and thread. This dialogue forms the backbone of the exhibition and flows into this Supper Club edition, where each dish becomes a reflection of their shared artistic process.
