About the Item

Finger Food, limited edition, archival pigment ink photograph, signed + numbered Holding Arabesque is an inward reflection that investigates our relationship with food and nostalgia and how both are used as coping mechanisms for stability during times of crisis and stress. Inspired by the abrupt shifts brought on by the pandemic, the series captures an idyllic time in the past that is remembered as better than today. Created all in camera, I use keepsakes along with food, patterns, shapes, forms, and colors as whimsical, playful, and nostalgic tableaux, choreographed in disciplined arrangements as symbols for hope. These cheerful totems disrupt the frame with unrealistic ways in which we are normally accustomed seeing food presented. Towering precariously, they question the delicate balance between stability and uncertainty – but most importantly, giving permission as an adult, that it’s still ok to play with your food.

  • Wedgwood Hibiscus with Red Onion, limited edition, archival photograph, signed
    By JP Terlizzi
    Located in Sante Fe, NM
    Wedgwood Hibiscus with Red Onion, limited edition, archival photograph, signed and numbered. The Good Dishes integrates memory, legacy, and metaphor with my response to loss. As I witnessed an early generation of family members pass, my cousins and I were each faced with the emotional task of cleaning out the family home. Sorting through the heirlooms, we would determine which items to toss, sell, or preserve. Without fail, when it came to the family’s fine china, that item was always given to the person who most cherished its memory and sentimental value. Growing up in a large Italian family, everything was centered around food and the family table. I remember vividly my mother’s vintage marigold stoneware dishes that she bought at the grocery store back in the early 1970s. She used them every day for as long as I could remember, and they had a life of their own. Along with my mother’s everyday dishes...
