What we eat has tremendous implications for our health, society, and the environment. Interweaving ethical, political, aesthetic, and poetic registers, Badani's seven messy and discomforting recipes invite the reader to consider the larger ecological landscape in which food and diet are part of the greater global narrative.
Part ecological manifesto, part artistic parody, this provocative work - disguised as an easy-to-read cookbook - blends ideas about consumerism, power, experience, time, nature, innocence, hope, sin and salvation. Melding photography together with elements ranging from poetry to science to informed psychobabble, this 7-day diet plan is funny, whimsical, and refreshingly critical of the greed behind consumption.
Pat Badani is a visual artist, writer and researcher who explores notions of utopia and dystopia through emergent art practices in works dealing with globalization, human migration, and ecological sustainability. Her works revitalize connections between food and cultures by scrutinizing the diets we eat.
