About Foodlydoodlydoo: Taking everyday objects out of context and presenting them under a different light has always been a popular technique for artists. In this spirit we focus on one of the most ordinary and yet surprisingly controversial objects: Food. The everydayness of food for obvious reasons does not require any further explanation. As a matter of fact, its value has seemingly decreased to a point where one might argue that for a large portion of the western industrialized world it has become a simple means to an end. Which is also mirrored in the mostly cliché-ful and repetitive imagery of it.
