As an artist I am very interested in today’s food culture. In my paintings I like to explore our habits, obsessions, addictions and view-points that has created this growing culture. We live in a consumer-orientated world where we are obsessed with having everything no matter the consequences. As a result, the choices we will have to make in the future regarding food consumption will be very different. The constant demand that has been placed on food consumption has created certain behavioural decisions in our society. The popularity around plant-based diets, ethically-sourced meat and reducing single-use plastics is starting to re-shape our attitude around food-consumption. This global shift in our behaviour is what I am interested in depicting. The idea that we might only have art to look back on as a reference to this time.
