Jackie Alpers's images explore the emotional, psychological and spiritual relationship that people have with food and drink. She is based in Tucson, Arizona.
"I am a fine art photographer who also shoots images for editorial and advertising assignments. My images explore interpersonal relationships, food, gender & identity. I am especially interested in the relationships that people have with food and with each other in the presence of food. Food is an important catalyst for so many of life's great themes. It lends itself to vast symbolism and interpretations and I love the rituals surrounding it."
