Artist on 'Meat' -
Meat poses for portrait, accentuating its natural beauty and alleviating itself as an object of food expenditure. A being in the inevitable of life and death much like ourselves, meat offers a reconsideration of humans in respect to nature and the uneasy embrace of death through its visual beauty.
