Photo essays of unsettling beauty, ethics, and perception. Thinking Twice is a provocative photographic meditation on food, beauty, and ethical tension. Over a decade of travel through markets in Asia, Europe, Mexico, and the United States, photographer Phyllis Crowley captured intensely cropped images of meat, fish, and organic matter that hover between abstraction and documentation. Devoid of conventional context, these photographs seduce the eye with sumptuous color, pattern, and texture, only to reveal-upon closer inspection-the raw realities of consumption, mortality, and environmental st...
Photo essays of unsettling beauty, ethics, and perception. Thinking Twice is a provocative photographic meditation on food, beauty, and ethical tension. Over a decade of travel through markets in Asia, Europe, Mexico, and the United States, photographer Phyllis Crowley captured intensely cropped images of meat, fish, and organic matter that hover between abstraction and documentation. Devoid of conventional context, these photographs seduce the eye with sumptuous color, pattern, and texture, only to reveal-upon closer inspection-the raw realities of consumption, mortality, and environmental strain. Essays by critic Zachary Fine and artist-curator Deborah Hesse frame the work within broader conversations about the "ugly sublime," sustainability, and the cultural rituals surrounding food. Neither didactic nor purely aesthetic, Thinking Twice challenges viewers to hold opposing truths at once: attraction and repulsion, beauty and violence, nourishment and loss. The result is a powerful visual experience that asks us to look beyond the plate and reconsider how food reflects our values, cultures, and relationship to the natural world. Published by OctoberWorks and designed by Jeanne Criscola, Thinking Twice embodies the imprint's commitment to intentional, design-forward publishing. It is a meditation on seeing - urging us, as the title suggests, to "think twice" to hold death and beauty, ethics and aesthetics, in our minds at once.
