DEESSA

Deessa is one of the five culinary spaces that forms part of the new Ritz Hotel in Madrid. Deesa comes from the goddess of nature and creation. It also refers to a specific natural space: the Deesa Valenciana.

The challenge was to treat a dish like a piece of art while packaging it within nature like something that comes from the earth. I wanted to generate a visual trompe l'oeil that would show how life made its way from the land and the mountains, yet that whole universe is an installation located in an art gallery.

Sonic atmosphere is the summing of analog detuned pads that modulate the volume peaks and valleys and the birds singing. The nature and objects are sonified with a detailed foley track created by using stones, sand and branches.
