Featured Processed Views in their online venue on June 16, 2016
"Junk food, in the name of art. Two US photographers are filling their carts with sugar-laden cereals, processed meat and fizzy drinks to create a new kind of American landscape photography: the “food desert,” literally. Inspired by black and white landscapes shot by 1860s photographer Carleton Watkins, Chicago-based duo Barbara Ciurej and Lindsay Lochman have created historic vistas out of 21st century materials. Their series Processed Views: Surveying the industrial landscape offers a Blue Mountain of Cake, a Cola Sea, a Fruit Loops River." (Cheng).
Notebook - Ponder Food is an archive and virtual artists’ journal which accompanies the photographic projectsPonder Food As Love and Processed Views. As part of their photographic collaboration, Barbara Ciurej and Lindsay Lochman use this space for their research notes, inspiration and correspondence as they explore complex individual and societal relationships to food. You are invited to view their website, www.ciurejlochmanphoto.com.
