Sweet Barbarians

In 'Sweet Barbarians', we sit down at the table for an indigestible banquet. The series uses a double metaphor to critique two of the most harmful structures to the health of the body and life: sugar and phallocentrism. In a sequence of images bordering on the grotesque, phallic-shaped sweets are offered, consumed, and manipulated, exposing how patriarchal culture is forced down our throats, disguised as pleasure. It is a scathing critique of how we are taught to consume and desire that which makes us sick and imprisons us.
