Hannah Collins. The Fragile Feast
12/01/2012
Ivorypress will present from 12 January the culinary journey of British photographer Hannah Collins through Ferrán Adrià’s cuisine.
In documenting the creation of 35 dishes by the world-renowned Catalan chef, the photographer has portrayed anemones from Cadiz, kuzu from Japan, honey from nomadic bees in Italy, or pines from the Pyrenees, among other raw materials. Adrià explains that Collins succeeded to‘portray the behind-the-scenes of each one of these ingredients, to follow the thread of a whole series of emblematic products all the way back to the origin, each one with its own specific area, people who have worked with it for a long time,very often following techniques and processes handed down from generation to generation’ .
The outcome of this work by Hannah Collins are 250 photos, a selection of which can be seen at Ivorypress Art + Books Space II until 4 February 2012.
