GROSSERIES

This photographic instillation was developed through several visits to grocers around London. With a 35mm lens at hand in search for both gross or appetising consumable goods with the intention of framing them to repel. The sole use of this lens allowed the close ups to seize distortions and blurs within the frame. The images are mounted within a plastic packaging, the concept behind this material choice for the installation emerged from the importance and excessive use in the food industry. While photographing in these environments, one begins to notice customers ease while holding their packaged goods compared to how “grossed out” they looked when the butcher was taking apart their order. The aspect of sanitation and sterility was the initial interested when displaying the work.
