SCHLARAFFENLAND BCN THE LAND OF COCKAIGNE 'N' THE FOOD CONTAINER
PHOTOS, ZONA FRANCA, BARCELONA 2013
Schlaraffenland or Cockaigne is a land of plenty in medieval myth, an imaginary place of extreme luxury and
ease where physical comforts
and pleasures are always immediately at hand and where the harshness of medieval peasant life does not exist.
Specifically, in poems like The Land of Cockaigne, Cockaigne is a land of contraries, where all the restrictions of society
are defied (abbots beaten by their monks), sexual liberty is open (nuns flipped over to show their bottoms),
and food is plentiful (skies that rain cheeses). It represented both wish fulfillment and resentment at the
strictures of asceticism and death.

because I've dedicated many years to the Social Humanities Studies I use Microsoft Word to PDF to JPG as a Photo-Collage Editing Process as my tool.
