Sleep, sex, and food are the three most important aspects of human life. Each represents rest, breeding, and survival - these basic elements form the foundation of human culture and society.

Food identity is often related to national and local eating habits and enhances regional identity. I am interested in establishing commonalities and personal roles through food selection. The choice of food is a conscious way to define our own position in society, through which we take a standpoint of ethics, ecology, religion and even politics. In my work, I think about this subject through personal food choices.
