Table for Six

“Table for Six” is a photograph created with a variety of disposable remnant products accumulated by the artist such as grocery packaging and food delivery packaging.  

“Table for Six” represents a snapshot of what remains after supper last night; the last time those single-use items served their function, and the moment they await disposal. It also represents those waste items then being resurrected within a pictorial frame. Most crucially, “Table for Six” is a sobering reminder that if the majority of us continue to disregard our own complicity in causing irreversible harm to the natural environment, our final meal may arrive sooner than we can anticipate.

Collective consciousness of our environment starts from individual agency towards more responsible consumption habits — and that can start from today’s supper.
