2024 - Eatori Market
In collaboration with Design Core, Bedrock, and Eatori Market for Detroit Month of Design, Thibodeau presents a series of ceramic tapestries that harmonize with diverse environments. Drawing inspiration from Eatori's vibrant aesthetic and its community, this collection explores the intersection of domestic imagery and the enduring nature of ceramic. Each piece serves as a portal, evoking both a sense of familiarity and a spark of curiosity.

“Tablescape Detroit is coming to Detroit as a dining experience uniting gastronomy and the ceramic vessels made for this sensorial event.
Featuring a collaboration between ceramic artist Claire Thibodeau and artist-designer Elizabeth Salonen. This is a living exhibition. It's interactive. It’s experimental. It’s fun. It’s collaborative. It’s a new experiential concept. We're bringing our sculptural wares to life with gastronomy.
Exclusively crafted for this event, the sculptural ceramic tablescape and art objects aim to challenge and inspire the selected chefs to curate a bespoke menu that harmonizes with each distinctive vessel. In the theme of United by Design and taking place during Detroit Month of
Design, this event will be an immersion in craft, design, and gastronomy. Ticket holders will be entered into a draw to win a handmade ceramic vessel signed by the artists."
