I started this project on March 13,2020, the day of my countries official quarantine. As I was at my local supermarket, I noticed a surreal frenzy amongst the canned goods section. It started a chain reaction in me and I too started to select canned foods. Arriving home, I became worried since I live alone. What happens to me if I get sick? Suddenly, this array of canned food became very important to me. It gave me a strange form of security. I photographed 30 cans in 30 days. My aim is to create images that display the uniqueness of each canned food item. Each photo has over 50 images.
Anne Mason-Hoerter, a Canadian photographer, delves into the intriguing effects of time on our memory. Her unique approach involves capturing images of botanical or food items over a specific time period, resulting in a multitude of individual photos. She then weaves these images together, recreating the subject solely from her memory. Anne's reliance on her recollection to convey the unique essence of the food or botanical item that has stayed with her over time is a fascinating journey into the human mind.
