ARTIST STATEMENT
Food Family Fun
The
photographs I have chosen in this series represent a small part of the journey
our family has taken over the past three years. This journey started with
reading books like Animal, Vegetable,
Miracle: A Year Of Food Life by Barbara Kingsolver. This has been a journey
of trying to be conscious of what we eat and where our food comes from. Our
family gathers around the table each evening to eat a home cooked meal and we
try as far as possible to make environmentally intelligent food choices. We
love to eat, to cook and to enjoy good food together.
The
photographs in this series represent the journey of gathering food locally to
enjoy together as a family.
Composition:
In order to tell my story I composed a series of still
life photographs trying to capture the elements of local food sellers, picking
vegetables at a local farm and the enjoyment of the meal with friends and
family.
