Perfect Temptation
In 2016, following Desarming Design from Palestine, I visited Ramallah. A year later, I travelled to Cuba with my peers. While I personally experienced an abundance of food, these two visits revealed how each faces distinct forms of resource control and colonial influence. Drawing on these experiences, I embarked on a visual investigation collage into the complexities of food scarcity in a world that, in theory, has enough resources to sustain everyone.
The resulting video installation creates an immersive environment, projected onto a floor covered in flour, inviting viewers to engage with the subject matter. Limited seating, made from flour bags, reinforces the theme of scarcity, fostering a connection between the audience and a narrative exploring the tension between desire and the unattainable. In this context, Gandhi's words resonate: "To those who must endure the absence of two meals a day, bread becomes the only manifestation of God." When survival is at stake, hunger exposes the stark reality of scarcity.
