Carrots, onions, garlic, radishes — humble ingredients, full of flavour, colour, and character.
They might not be rare or exotic, but they’re the heart of every kitchen. Layered, twisted, with roots still clinging to the soil — a reminder that beauty often lies in the ordinary.
 
This tile panel brings together a seasonal mix of vegetables, each one painted in vibrant tones that reflect their personality.
Some are sweet, others sharp, some pungent and grounding — but together, they form the basis of countless meals, cultures, and traditions.
 
At Peracotta, I see food not just as fuel, but as a connection: to the land, the seasons, and the people we share it with.
Choosing to eat locally and in season means fewer food miles, less packaging, and no pesticides — a small, everyday act with big ecological impact.
 
This piece is a tribute to those quiet heroes of the kitchen — grown in nearby soil, cooked with care, and now captured in glaze.
