With Salivating Tongues We Gaze Lustingly At Sugar, Salt, And Fat

This is a report of a thesis to complete the Master of Fine Arts Degree at East Carolina University. The body of work presented is the result of research and creative activity which addresses a number of food-related issues. I investigate the idea that most Americans are only vaguely knowledgeable of the food chain which sustains us. Through the construction of mixed media art objects, I question and critique capitalist food production, advertising and consumption.
