There is a sense of detachment towards the food we eat. It might be related to the abundance and diversity of food choices within our reach and accompanied by the fact that eating has become rather an automatic process. We’ve forgotten that food sustains life, carries pleasure, brings people together and so - its origin, quality, and quantity matter - in a more-than-human world. According to the UN, farming accounts for almost 70 percent of all water withdrawals and more than one-quarter of the energy used globally is expended on food production and supply. We face a paradox; food as source of life and predator of the very same system that allows its existence. Taking inspiration from Chris Jordan who states that, as we try to educate ourselves, we are faced with pure raw data. We are caught up in a mass of abstraction, with numbers even in trillions, which our brain just does not have the ability to comprehend. But which can be translated into a more universal visual language that can be felt. Cárnico is a work under construction, which attempts to make visible the perhaps unconscious depletion of resources, and the complex systems that coexist with the meat industry. It is a self-reflection on the meat universe in my community. My neighbourhood became the starting point of the project. This is the space I inhabit, my immediate context from which my subjective understanding of the world originates. A partial representation of a global issue - the issue of the volume of meat we consume. Why meat? Meat requires more than 20 times more land and emits 20 times more GHG emissions per gram of edible protein than common plant proteins, such as beans. It is only a proper place to start taking responsibility for my behaviour towards a possible solution to climate change. This is a non-traditional documentary project, which employs alternative art resources to ignite a discussion. In the process, I was invertedly reminded that the main component of this expression – photography - is experiencing the same production/consumption glut, thus becoming a metaphor of unconscious acts. Cárnico, does not sanction meat consumption, but prompts to rethink my individual correspondence with food to make conscious choices. It is an individual moral quest with a desirable outcome, but with multiple possibilities for its construction. Such quest requires self-reflexion and above all change.
