David Keller, a student at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem, has designed a barbecue set that investigates the phenomena of immigration and cultural diffusion. This project creates new aesthetics (rather than guarding old ones) by recombining habits and traditions into pidgin objects that address the "humor, absurdity and emotion" created at the meeting point between two cultures.

Specifically investigating the overlap between Russia and Eastern Europe, the set includes a porcelain and gold barbecue, a wooden hand fan/old cardboard holder, gold inserts for disposable cutlery, a tea cup holder for polystyrene cups, and a disposable plastic vodka glass.

More after the jump.
