Not Quite California Wonder
by Fuzzy, 2021

Bell Pepper is a currency of values, that is cultivated in micro-sensored labs. This hollow berry is filled with engineered taste, artificial love and hate, man-made colour, geometry and genetic Boogie. It is an all year long harvested yellow delirium and dark red threat.

‚Not Quite California Wonder‘ engages with the changing fashion of food production and the emerging lack of diversity of crops around the world. We explore the role of bell pepper over time as plant, food, industry, symbol of political power and ecological catalyst.The film is a continuation of the ongoing research of the Fuzzy collective, focusing on Capsicum annuum (bell pepper).
