Diane Leclair Bisson presents here her first work: a reflection full of colors and textures on cooking and our eating habits. Faced with the proliferation of disposable containers and in reaction to overpackaging, the author challenges us to transform food into real packaging material. Quinoa cutlery, a plate for dessert, a biscuit straw, a 100% edible lunch, such is the aim of this research.

Edible, Food as material presents the result of this journey, both playful and scientific, through magnificent color photographs of more than thirty food samples, of which the author herself created the material and the shape. This area of investigation is based on a vision resolutely focused on sustainable development since it explores the concept of the edible plate as a model that is both cultural and material, promising in the reduction of waste. Both scientific and artistic, Edible, Food as material shows the possible extent of a future register of edible containers.
