Take Out

American junk food is not just part of our diet, it epitomizes our cultural ideals and social norms. The guilty pleasure of enjoying a McDonald's hamburger, a big slice of pizza, or a glazed donut; the American appetite is set on a path of consumption, devouring everything until we are left with nothing but inconsequential garbage. I strive to provoke reflection on a mass-consumption, mass-production culture, where the negative aspects of overindulgence are deliberately forgotten or ignored. My work questions a culture that equates fulfillment, pleasure, and happiness with a cheap, fast, and out of control lifestyle.
