Easter table setting with cutlery on a dark wooden background with a piece of paper for your text on a plate
Table mountain is to the left and Lion's Head is on the right. There was a scam artist working the crowds, asking for money to park there, even though this is a free public park.
This is an old photo I made in 2001, long before I had a digital camera, to demonstrate safety issues when using a table saw to build 12 foot tall polyhedra.

Hair-like sisal is used to playful effect in this table. The raw fibres are from the leaves of the agave plant, an agricultural waste left over from tequila distilleries.
Formerly produced to make rugs, ropes and fishing nets, sisal use has diminished with the invention of plastic.
Fernando Laposse's designs support local employment and the development of new agave plantations that help to retain rainfall on over-farmed, barren landscapes.

Waste Age: What can design do?
(October 2021 – February 2022)
We all know waste is a big problem. So how are we going to fix it?
A new generation of designers is rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to food, electronics to construction, even packaging - finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of clean materials and a circular economy could point the way out of the Waste Age.
Explore major new exhibits that capture the devastating impact of waste including a large-scale art installation by Ibrahim Mahama made from e-waste in Ghana.
The exhibition showcases some of the visionary designers who are reinventing our relationship with waste, including Formafantasma, Stella McCartney, The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, Lacaton & Vassal, Fernando Laposse, Bethany Williams, Phoebe English and Natsai Audrey Chieza.
'We must face the problem of waste – we can no longer ignore what happens to things when we get rid of them. Instead of thinking of objects as things that have an end life, they can have many lives. This is not just an exhibition it is a campaign, and we all have an active part in our future.' Gemma Curtin, Curator.

According to Cherokee legend, a smaller peak to the right (not visible here) is the Stool where the Great Spirit sat when he ate at the Table (center). As I was taking this photo, a very noisy flock of geese came through. I was more concerned about including the geese than including the Stool.
