Teller takes its inspiration from the fast-food culture experienced during a stay in Germany, where food is served on paper plates(teller), and the tell-tale grease stains left behind on these plates. The project views these paper plates and the remnants of meals as objects that narrate everyday life.
Similar fast-food culture is present in Belgium, notably with their famous "frites" (French fries). I aim to explore how exposure to such food culture has influenced the area around Wiels.
