LEIOA GASTRO+ ART

With the idea in mind and the desire for interdisciplinary collaboration, the challenge is embodied in 2024 with a unique project that links students from the EHU/UPV’s Master’s Degree in Ceramics with a group from the Leioa School of Hotel Management to share and generate synergies in order to make an idea a reality.

THE MARRIAGE OF TWO ARTS

Gastronomy and pottery

Based on this idea and the desire for interdisciplinary cooperation, this challenge will manifest itself in 2024 with a unique project, linking students from the EHU/UPV’s Master’s Degree in Ceramics and a group from the EHU/UPV’s Hospitality School, to share and establish synergies in order to turn an idea into a reality.Bringing together two arts, connected through the bond between container and content, thus providing a special meaning to the harmonious concept between culture, habit, beauty, desire and identity.Thus, the Leioa Gastro+Art celebration becomes the first edition of a holistic project that intends to consolidate and explore the convergence between different knowledge fields in each new edition.
Space for culture

Leioa crockery

Formally, the Master’s Degree in Ceramics students were inspired by Leioa’s orography and its relief, featuring rivers and streams that run among rolling hills, flowing into a low plain located next to the banks of the sound.

Leioa Crockery is thus distinguished by the soft waves that aesthetically unify each piece, as a result of the creativity of the Master’s Degree in Ceramics students at the EHU/UPV, assisted by Blanka Gómez de Segura, Master Potter and director of the Ollerías Basque Pottery Museum.

nutritious, tasty and attractive

The menu

The students of Leioa’s Hospitality School were challenged to create a sustainable menu with local, seasonal produce that did not result in food waste in its preparation.

A nutritious, tasty and attractive menu from an organoleptic and visual perspective.

Thanks to the outstanding quality of local products and the excellent cooking skills of the students of Leioa Hospitality School, we have achieved a cuisine inspired by Baserritarras traditions and the proximity of the sea.

Flavours that form part of our culinary culture, reinterpreted with skill, creativity, passion and art.
