Eat it!


Eat it! _ an adventurous story about the earth and the fruit it bears

Digging, rooting, within your body and soul. Finding potatoes, hidden deep in fertile ground, their eyes staring straight out into the world. Never blinking. Not once.
Observing man through these very eyes - narcissistic planters, grumpy pickers, insatiable eaters. 

Fingers piercing into the ground, longing to harvest this oddly-shaped vegetable. Should we steal it, keep it, protect or be sharing it?  Screaming injustice.  A sense of duty, of respecting one's neighbour. Loving. Desiring and yearning. Constantly.

Eat it! is an adventurous story about the earth and the fruit it bears. Every thin slice that's being cut reveals an ever so delicate human and political message.
