The Faces Behind Our Food

  • Johnny Bean

Photographer for a campaign and exhibition, commissioned by LESS, Lancaster, a food sustainability project. The campaign was to highlight local food producers and their stories behind the food we take for granted. The exhibition enables us to see and hear the faces and voices behind the food on our plates, the work that they do, and to understand that the issues affecting them are ones that affect us all.
