Victuals

Victuals.

As a child, I used to hear about war, civil wars, African hunger, etc.

I thought that could never happen to me,

Simply because I´d resort to my body.

With the pandemic situation and the primitive reactions worldwide,

like the frantic purchasing of food, toilet paper, etc.,

Those childhood feelings returned.

The fear to die, or die of hunger, sustenance

And the caring of the body as a vessel of life and survival.

I prepared my plan: “victuals”

Retouched photographs of my body

Transformed in food and necessary object to survive
