'Dishes for Dolls' is a sort of spin-off of 'The Oldest Thing'. Based on this previous book, published in 2023 (now out of print), Ruth van Beek created a new selection of images from her archives, focusing on doll dishes. The book is presented as a leporello, with one side featuring a collage composition forming a collection of dishes, and the other side showcasing tablecloths. It’s a new exploration of domestic life and childhood, which the artist examines in light of her family heritage.
