“VIRAL OTHERS” SHARING COFFEE AND BREAD
“VIRAL OTHERS”分享咖啡和面包

Two years of covid have pushed everyone to a certain level of distrust. We started the project of the Sawerdo with the fear that putting people around a table was an endangered gathering format. The risk was taken, a sort of hopeful leap of faith by the founders, believing that the jumping microbes of a too-close neighbour would never be an obstacle to being together.

两年的新冠病毒把每个人都推向了一定程度的不信任。我们开始Sawerdo的项目时，担心把人们围在桌子旁是一种极度危险的聚会形式。创始人冒了这个险，这是一种充满希望的信仰飞跃，他们相信，距离极近的邻居身上跳跃着的微生物永远不会成为我们在一起的阻碍。

Instead, a bet was taken on the opposite scenario: the one by which proximity is a simple vector towards spontaneous conversation and exchange well beyond the fear of a viral other.

相反，他们在相反的情况下下了赌注:在这种情况下，亲近是自发交谈和交流的简单载体，远远超越了对病毒式传播的他人的恐惧。

Our project spatialised and constructed this “moment” of our lives and put everything and everyone around a staged and very material table.

我们的项目将我们生活中的这个“时刻”进行了空间化和构建，把所有的东西和每个人都放在一张有舞台的、非常物质的桌子周围。

Beyond the obvious references to traditional bread-making materials like marble and steel speed racks, the idea became quite simple: a hosting table allowing a variety of configurations. Somehow, the set is a half domestic, half professional one, between sharing “table d’hôtes” and dining in the interior of a bakery.

除了明显参考传统的面包制作材料，如大理石和钢速度架，想法变得非常简单:一个容纳多种配置的桌子。不知何故，这套套餐是半国内半专业的，既可以共享餐桌，也可以在面包店内部用餐。

Jeff Wall's image Dressing Poultry (2007) was shot on a farm near Vancouver, celebrating a moment of fun while working – preparing what will become food. With an aesthetic at the antipodes of Sawerdo's project, this image has yet the same intention: to bring the act of cooking, nourishing, and sharing into a unifying whole of the living.

杰夫·沃尔(Jeff Wall) 2007年拍摄的《给家禽穿衣服》(Dressing Poultry)是在温哥华附近的一个农场拍摄的，他在庆祝工作时的快乐时刻——准备即将成为食物的东西。与Sawerdo项目的美学相反，这个图像有相同的意图:将烹饪、滋养和分享的行为纳入一个统一的生活整体。

Like Jeff Wall's lightboxes, the Sawerdo had the chance to be in a very beautiful space that the project reveals as much as possible: an inhabited lightbox where scenes of life occur and will keep on happening as long as we understand that we are all biological beings or “viral others”.

就像Jeff Wall的灯箱一样，Sawerdo有机会位于一个非常美丽的空间中，该项目尽可能地揭示了:一个有人居住的灯箱，生活场景在这里发生，并将继续发生，只要我们理解我们都是生物或“病毒他人”。
