Jitish Kallat 3. What does the artist do to influence your perception with this piece? 
(What is the context? what visual cues add information?)
The artist depicts the phases of the moon with what looks like chips. After further researched I learned it was small comfort foods like pita, tortilla, and injera. 4. In what way(s) does this piece demonstrate an interaction of culture and art? 
(Do your best to identify this, there usually isn't really any one answer)
This art piece takes food that we eat and creates a story out of it. Although the art piece seems pretty simple and meaningless, until you really stand there and stare at the wonder of what it depicts. 5. How does the work reflect that cultural association? 
(Does it contain symbols, text, design elements, content, etc. that reflects a specific perspective?)
The use of food that he would eat and is apart of his culture is an element of the art piece. The moon shape represents the journey of life through the phases of the moon. 6. Explain why you chose this particular item: 
(what is it that caught your interest or attention - give me the details!)
I chose this piece because I tend to gravitate towards art pieces that use everyday items. These art pieces interest me more because they use items to create a meaning rather than paint. It caught my attention because I didn’t understand the true meaning of the art piece until reading more about it online. I figured out the element (food) and basis (phases of the moon) however I could not find connections between the two.
And don't forget to include a photograph of the object. 
(Check the museum gift shop for postcards - an inexpensive way to get a nice picture)
