The act of nourishment as an occasion of encounter between individuals was the first ritual performed by man: from the ritual of the pagan banquet derived, little by little, the Eucharistic liturgy.

"Take and eat. this is my body which is given for you; I am the bread of life; he who comes to me will no longer hunger and he who believes in me will no longer thirst". According to Christian tradition, transubstantiation is the physical change of the substance of bread and wine in the body and blood of Jesus.

A table sumptuously laid with complements made of wafer is a transfiguration of Christ's body in objects, in an ethereal personalization and divinization of the product.

An interpretation of mass consumerism that is part of the debate on the crisis of values, desecrating food and bringing it back to an earthly level.

In a contemporary historical moment of ideological, political and religious crisis TRANSUBSTANTIA PAGANUS is a mirror that allows the comparison between the viewer and the metaphorical meaning of the work; we are all part of the process, victims and executioners of the decadence that involves every sector of the contemporary: religion, politics, society, environment.

In the objects that make up the daily banquet this condition of fragility and emptiness is reflected, we celebrate the return to a process in which symbolism is stronger than morphology, denying the very substance of objects that is lost in fragile and primordial forms.
