The Farmer Series
Mulvaney's B & L commissed me to produce this photo essay about local food producers in the Sacramento region. For six months, I met with the people who provide this lovely farm-to-table restaurant with their ingredients, grown right in the Sacramento Valley. This was for me a marvelous undertaking. Being deeply concerned about the present state of our food culture, I was delighted to meet the people who have chosen the difficult task of producing food in their own terms in a time when cheap (and, consequently, low quality) is king.
The result are ten images, created on black and white film, then developed by hand, and finally printed on archival watercolor paper. They are on permanent display at Next Door - the area of the restaurant designated for private events.
The photo essay can be seen here.
