So. Much. Choice. London, ON January 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
These temples of edible consumption are filled with shelf after shelf of increasingly expensive goods, laid out in an aesthetic that hasn’t changed much in decades.
We’d be forgiven for assuming we can’t have a little fun with a camera. I subscribe to the notion that we most certainly can.
Which explains how I found myself staring down the length of the deli meat display. Kinda looks like a funhouse, doesn’t it?
Which is kind of why I’m so enamoured by the process of squeezing the extraordinary out of the ordinary, of looking at things from a different angle, my eyes scrunched up just so.
Because in the end nothing is truly ordinary. Not if we don’t allow it. Not if we keep poking around the fringes in search of new ways to see.
