Interdisciplinary. Community. Advocacy. Humor.
In the top view of the Seder plate you can see that the recycled tin cans are embossed with forms representing Seder symbolic foods. Plexiglas panel fits securely into the top recess to make the Seder plate useable for the Seder service.
Seder plate constructed using recycled tin cans and steel from toy appliances; 10k gold, sterling silver and aluminum rivets; stainless steel and brass screws.
Figures along the sides cut from recycled tin cans. Figures on three sides (starting with the black triangle) represent historical costume of the Jewish people throughout the centuries. The fourth side includes figures representing Japanese-Americans at the relocation camps, lost boys of Sudan, and Sudanese women carrying bundles.
