We are food — Cover

We are food

A provocative exploration of the body as consumable matter, rendered through transparent packaging and raw, textural surfaces. The subject sits on a stark white stage, her legs encased in knee-high boots wrapped in crinkled clear plastic, evoking the shrink-wrap of supermarket shelves. Her top is fashioned from a translucent, cabbage-leaf beige material that slips off one shoulder, crumpled and organic in form, while her makeup leans into deep burgundy lips and graphic liner that anchor the gaze. The lighting is cold and clinical, casting sharp shadows that sculpt the figure with an almost surgical precision. In another frame, cascading blonde hair is studded with translucent teardrop ornaments, creating a veil that speaks to themes of preservation, protection, and commodification. The editorial draws on a roster of collaborators including PEÑA LAB, Agustina Agronina, and Alejandro Madrid, whose combined vision dismantles the boundary between nourishment and objectification, appetite and identity.
