The picture by Peter Menzel reflects the importance of health foods in Hindu culture. While watching the photos of the Patkar family you can see the many aspects and techniques Peter Menzel used to tie the audience to their families. People immediately noticed the vitality of the food. Large amounts of color are released through the food series. Like a plate filled with regular Sangeeta Patkar's Poha breakfast or other breakfast called Rice Cakes, there is a small amount of similar colored pockets on the table.
American photographer Peter Menzel and author Faith D'Aluisio traveled the world and recorded the most basic human behavior - what we eat. Their project "Hungry Planet" represents everything that an average family consumes in a week and their costs. In 2005, the couple announced their book "Hungry Planet: What the World ate" and presented food and drinks in 24 countries. The Eye of Tingo of Ecuador is drawn as a mountain of vegetables. South Central Mari, the Natomo family of Kouakourou sits on the roof of their house and sits with a cereal bag. One of my favorite foods of the Madsen Greenland family is a polar bear and a bearded whale, or a whale with a medium tooth.
Here is why Peter Menzel and Faith D'Alusio's "Hunger Planet: What the World Eats (Public Libraries)" is very powerful. For a week, I recorded what paper and movies my family had eaten and how much it costs. This photograph and its ability to envelop the atmosphere of that era is very special and condenses a lot of information - culture, politics, and economy - in commentary that makes us feel emotionally. The students stood in front of the tanks in Tiananmen Square. Vulture recipients that have won the Pulitzer Prize track photos of hungry children. An iconic Afghan girl in National Geographic. Even without the complete background of these pictures they will make us "that." Hungry Planet did exactly that.
