This piece was inspired by Justin Walker’s “Daddy Bruce” and Henry George Todd’s “Study of Strawberries.” It combines the concept of commercial appetite from the former, with subtly deteriorating strawberries from the latter. What can initially appear delectable may really be rotting–which is an aspect of (and problem with) our society’s excessive consumerism. We have all been reduced to a meal meant to be devoured.
