Piece description from the artist
This photograph is from a series titled 'Humus' focusing on what passes through my hands again and again and coming from the earth. I often peel the leek skin to get to the fresh inner layer. I keep the skins to dry out, they become a transparent paper like husk, beautiful to photograph in a abstract way- seeing the food in another light, leeks are also very beneficial for our overall health, they keep us well, in balance on a cellular level.
