Plan (for now) From the 23/9/14

To narrow my idea, I am only going to look at recipes from the earliest of the 1600s (17th Century).

I also need to find artists from each century to be inspired by and to respond to, for my artefact. Another thing, I only need to find a couple of recipes from each century (starting from the 17th Century) to use for my images.

 

Need to specify with what type of food I am going to photograph... :

- only desserts?

- or only main courses?

- or for each century choose a main course and a pudding to photograph?

 

Questions to ask myself:

-Am I going to choose one artist to be inspired by, and use their technique for ALL recipes that I have (and will) research?

- Or am I going to use artists from each of those centuries to be inspired by to photograph that food from that century?

- What kind of book am I  going to produce?

*Recipe book? where people will actually make recipes from OR

*Aesthetically pleasing food book? Like a historical cookbook/timeline cookbook/food photography book with a bit of background information on how food was presented in earlier centuries?
