Process: Collagraph, Image Transfer, Tea
My piece of the pie was inspired by the ingredients list of the frozen fruit pie that I picked from the unmarked packages at the Wingtip Press meeting. The pie contained saturated fat, added sugar, preservatives, cholesterol, high amount of sodium, as well as numerous ingredients with mysterious names such as acetylated monoglycerides and ascorbyl palmitate. I could not bring myself to eat it or to share it with anyone I know.
I often question the safety of processed foods that are so widely available at supermarkets. These products also cost significantly less than their more natural counterparts and this fact brings up the issue of the availability of healthy foods to the general public. Is healthy, nutritious food a luxury that only the wealthier percentage of the population can afford?
