Trash Anonymous

 

Disguarded

Photo-based Sculpture

There are different reasons food is wasted, for this project I wanted to photograph plates that had been eaten on and were about to scraped clean and thrown away. Waste is a term that is loosely used, all of the food still on these plates is edible, but it will eventually be dis-guarded.  It is sad that in a society where people are suffering from hunger, that good food it going to a landfill.  The digital images were printed on matte paper and adhered to the paper plates.  By filling the trash can with the paper plates, a true understanding of how much excess food is heaped onto a plate at dinner time. Only take what is needed not what is wanted.  Others are going to bed with nothing for dinner, while good food goes to rot.
