i am stubborn about what i release via the internet, i suppose its because my deep love for photography started with film. when i was a kid i took photographs and got the rolls developed at the drug store. when i got a digital camera, every couple months i would cull through photos to pick out favorites to print, they never felt complete until i had that huge stack in my hand. when i got into the darkroom, perfecting the print was a joy. the print and a screen are different worlds. i’ve always valued tangibility. slowly but surely i am adjusting to the world we live in, not everyone can just come to galleries or my studio to see my work in person and i had to get over that. so here i am. i’m extremely excited to finally release this here and now. i started this project in 2010. the bulk of it was done by early 2011, when my thesis exhibition happened and my written thesis had to be turned in. but it isn’t over.

i have a sensitivity to grains, which means i don’t consume most of them, which also means that i’m always experimenting and looking for alternative ways to make yummy favorites that i can’t eat anymore. even before this developed, when it comes to my meals, i tend to stick with meat and veggies, so it hasn’t been too hard, but there are some things i do miss, and pizza is one. my grain sensitivity has only developed in the past year and a half, and since i’ve been without a home technically for the past year, i haven’t done a ton of alternative cooking research since i haven’t had a playground for it. my brain comes up with random ideas here and there. it hadn’t gotten to pizza yet.


i went to visit an old photo professor of mine on friday and somehow in the midst of art/life catchup we got on the subject of food (he grows tons of rad veggies) and he mentioned that pizza crust can be made from cauliflower. i know my face lit up. i immediately looked up a recipe, and i tried it today, with some twists of my own. 


i was completely happy with it. totally worth the 2 hours it took (mostly because it was my first attempt and there was alot of fresh ingredients that needed chopped/grated involved, which is the best.)


i took some photos along the way with my iphone using vscocam (which i would totally recommend btw) the edges look burnt because my eggs were too big, the access liquid burned.
