Chris Boffoli Big Appetites Photography Series Uses Tiny People And Large Food
Chris Boffoli’s Big Appetites photography series comes straight out of Gullivers Travels with images reminding us of our obsession with food and all things small. Here’s what Boffoli has to say about his series:
When I began shooting some of the very earliest images in this series, around 2003, food was a conscious choice as one of the components as it can be very beautiful – in terms of texture and color – especially when shot with available light and macro lenses. Combining what is essentially food and toys makes the work instantly accessible to virtually everyone. Regardless of language, culture and social status, almost everyone can identify with toys from their childhood. And whether you eat with a fork, chopsticks or your hands, everyone understands food. Sitting down to a meal makes us feel most human.
They’re beautifully shot photographs awith a good sense of humour
