The idea came about while cooking during the Corona period.
I asked my grandma how to make a Spanish tortilla. Something I somehow miss. I'm slowly starting to miss my family.
I looked at different potatoes in the supermarket. I always found potatoes somehow humorous. Potatoes simply have a sense of humor. Celery not so much.
I then thought about how the whole thing works with the harvest when I was washing them. Somehow similar to the development of an idea.
Portrait of potatoes, the potato as a graphic element, the printer, the work that is printed and harvested. I could have done it with a carrot, but I wanted to eat Spanish tortilla at the time.
