 The Tea Set is a series of narrative sculptures to illustrate the cultural history around a ‘British cuppa’ through a devised ‘tea ceremony’ with Eastern attention and appreciation.

The Tea Ceremony is held as an activation of the narrative sculpture. Guests will be served cups of English breakfast tea accompanied by several narratives read by the artist, highlighting Britain’s cultural and socio-history of tea.
