ANDREA GUEDELLA
(untitled) (Series)
DESCRIPTION
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 photographies of my body
Transformed in food and necessary object to survive
