It takes up to 20 minutes for your brain to recognize that you are full. In reality, most people take less time than that to consume their food. When I make decisions like this, I affect more than just my hunger. I have taken these images instantaneously, just as my health decisions are made. A Droid 2 cellphone is used to document the foods I choose to eat, work environment, notes to self, calendar entries, evidence of the doctor visits, and the medications. All these components create a broader picture of a life, not just food. The accumulation of imagery shows the passage of time and the overwhelming process of the reoccurring components. In this wok I create an invitation into my world through a visual diary, in which the photographic documentation has become a coping mechanism to my monotonous health issues.
