Food porn is depicted in the current artistic practice, with the accelerated breathing of desire and food as the epicenter, we surrender to the discreet charm of these new aesthetics. 

«La Grande Bouffe» shows us the exotic beauty of food and its multiple meanings within the current social sphere. And it does so by satisfying each of our appetites: emotional hunger, hunger for statement and social hunger. 

There are few acts more evocative than the symbolic history generated by gathering people around a table. An act that provokes a progressive experience around the pleasure of the culinary content and the social act, where desire and appetite are shared and «observed». Different desires, different appetites and one stomach. 

In an incessant and perpetual attempt to portray life, we seek to condense that symbolic history into an image, we continue to want to capture the exquisiteness of desire and its multiple variables. 

From the inanimate and towards life, the present plastic art uses its tools to give voice to the characteristic silence of the old still lifes of the 17th Century. The vibration has varied, the focus has changed. From our «visual gluttony» we scan each image and we appropriate it, letting its meaning transcend our memory, these «still lifes» are no longer untouchable. Today, these works are… «Fucking Delicious». 

A contemporary still life that happens to show in its essence the virtue of antiquity, compositional beauty and technique, but without the splendor and mystery of the frozen image of the past, this still life speaks of our lives and the strange mechanisms that awakens «desire» in us. 

From the empathy produced by mirror neurons and the innate need to understand and connect with the rest of the people, we connect to the social network through an image, we observe it, we listen to it, and we lick its plastic. 

We succumb to hunger in its three types of appetites in the new digital currents and we see how the vigor of food falls before the irrevocable truth of time. Weariness begins to appear visually before us from the autonomous praxis and we commit again the cardinal sin of «visual gluttony»; forming part of the social dichotomy of the digital screen, where loneliness is felt less and the habits of desire go through the most macabre thoughts. 

Far from the still life of the past, the innate mechanisms of the human mind end up shaping each of these creations and hunger appears in our stomachs viscerally, with or without reflection … believe me, this is Fucking Delicious.
