Andy Warhol once described that the reason for making multiple images of the same subject was because, as he quoted, "the more you look at the same exact thing...the better and emptier you feel" He was making a comment on the repetitious nature of popular culture. Because I was exploring photographically the texture of this artichoke I was obsessed in creating various colors of it and was rather pleased with the end result. Somehow...I did not feel empty...but rather gratified. Maybe because it was food that not only feeds the stomach but the soul. Food is a celebration of vibrancy and life.
