I will be participating in the 21st edition of the Périgueux Gourmet Book Festival, a national event in the Dordogne, a land of gastronomy. I will be presenting three paintings, perhaps four: the last one, begun in January, is still to be finished.

They explore my relationship with meat and an elitist gastronomic culture, at a time when social misery is on the rise. Without vegetarian or vegan rhetoric, these works question pleasure, the necessity of eating, and the awareness that a sentient being has been killed for us. An invitation to eat mindfully and to give thanks—God knows who—for the opportunity to do so.
