| "As a documentary photographer, I examine in this project how new food crops are developed and how this process bears upon the world food problem. My point of departure is 'seed', the beginning of all life. What fascinates me is the duality of the process: on the one hand, the romanticism of the earthly and tactile and, on the other, the rationality of gene-driven biotechnology, where abstraction, complexity and scale become key concepts." Jos Jensen, from the included essay, The Chosen One | |
