'Meat, Fish & Aubergine Caviar is a project Alex Blanco created between 2016 and 2021 in Odesa, Ukraine. Through this project, Blanco explores the themes of vulnerability, beauty, routine and hope, focusing on the dynamics within family relationships. Within this selection of images, Blanco aims to capture a range of emotions, from the heartbreaking sadness of not being able to see loved ones due to war, to the optimistic anticipation of a future reunion in my childhood home of Odesa.
One of the aspects that makes 'Meat Fish & Aubergine Caviar' visually compelling is the depiction of the passage of time and its effect on the artist's parents, who have become isolated from the outside world due to the devastating impact of the war. Through these photographs, Blanco aims to convey the profound beauty of their humanity and the intimacy found in their daily routines. It is a tender and bittersweet portrait of their lives.
'Meat Fish & Aubergine Caviar' is a poignant testament to the fragile and beautiful nature of life itself. It reminds us to cherish every moment we have with our loved ones and serves as a reflection on the importance of appreciating the connections that bind us together.
