You Are What You Eat

Dalila Oliveira

You Are What You Eat explores overstimulation and overconsumption in the digital age, showing how food, fashion, media, and technology subtly shape identity. ‘Eating’ becomes both literal and metaphorical, reflecting how trends, aesthetics, and information are digested without conscious awareness. Bold styling, messy food, and the constant presence of technology exaggerate this sensory chaos.

Three models embody different aesthetics, environments, and forms of overload: one in a grassy field with strawberries and office elements, another post-shopping with music and melting ice cream, and a third in a chilly playground, eating cake amid persistent phone calls. These images illustrate that overstimulation affects everyone differently yet feels universally consuming.
