Unseen Dishy is a documentary book created by Lasse Pempeit and Nina Knöll, exploring the people who keep our society running but often remain unseen. Focusing on the work of a dishwasher, the project sheds light on a role that is essential yet frequently underestimated. Through interviews with the restaurant owner and the dishwasher himself, alongside a day of photographic and written documentation, the book offers an intimate insight into his daily life and the vital role he plays behind the scenes. A reminder to look closer, question our perceptions and give greater recognition to the people who make everyday life possible.
