Collection concept:
Zea mays
Zea mays is the Latin name for corn, one of the most cultivated grains in the world. My collection could be about world hunger, Africa, malnutrition, hungry children, poverty, greed, genetically modified foods and much more. Today, for me, Zea mais is about the extraordinary of the ordinary, about lines, texture, color, tone, shape, and maybe too little about other topics.
