The shape originates from “Man-ge-kyou”, a Japanese optical kaleidoscope toy. It is a mirrored tube that reflects hundreds of colors which form different shapes. As the kaleidoscope is turned, the image changes randomly to create various patterns. Once a pattern disappeared it took ages to turn the same combination. The dish represents the stationary kaleidoscope with various shapes to form patterns that I remembered from my childhood. It is a sauce dish and as different sauces are used, additional dishes are required, forming various larger patterns.
