This is a wonderful email of pictures I got from Jyo Lyn. Let the pictures WOW you! This is what I call CREATIVITY...
The British photographer Carl Warner created a series of phtos using only food to make the cenary. The word “foodscapes” (union of the words food and landscape) show underwater caves, forests, beaches on sunset and even waterfalls, using fruits, vegetables, cheese, cold meat, pasta, among other.
In this forest, trees are made of brocolis, with peas hanged up and the highways are paved with cumin. The grass is made of herbs and the mountains, of bread. Clouds made of cauliflower, decorate the sky.
The photgrapher tells that he is known in the neighborhood of his house, in Kent, England, for passing hours in th emarket looking for the best brocolis or the best pepper to “compose” his cenaries. To gain depth, the photos are taken on tables with 1,2 x 2,4 meters square. Besides, they are registrated in”layers”, to avoid that the food shrivels before the picture is taken.
The edible ingredients in this rural scene of italian inspiration include a small car made of lasagna slices, fields of pasta, and clouds of mozzarela. Trees of pepper, parsley and basil complete the scene, at the bottom, a small village of cheese.
“I like the way of how the little aspects of nature look like big”, says Carl Warner. At the Italian inspiration´s kitchen, many tomatos and olives.
He confesses that, till now, he hasn´t convinced yet his four children to eat more vegetables.
“At least, I can´t say that they play with food more than I do”, declares the photographer.
This cavern is made of marine crustaceans. The rocks are made of bread, but, at the deep of the sea, they are made of cauliflower. To make the tridimensional sensation to the pictures, each scene is composed on a 1,2 x 2,4 m square table.
Rice, coconut, many grains and a sky made of purple cabbage compose this bucolic “land”.
Trees with cabbage leaves, rocks of sweet potato, narrow pass made of bread and the sky made of purple cabbage.
The red sea of this beach, at the sunset, is made of salmon slices. The rocks are made of potatoes and bread. A small boat made of beans completes the scene.
Shitake mushrooms, sesame and other grains
Cheese houses, awnings and baskets of macarroni, grains and vegetables form this small passage.
Italian culinary with many vegetables and pasta. Houses made of cheese.
At first view, it is difficult to notice that the mountains are made of bread...
Creativity is impressive, baloons made of fruits and vegetables, trees made of brocolis, rocks of potatoes, farmings of corn and cucumber, city of cheese, tower of carrot, and so on...
In this alpine scene, Grissini biscuits and Parma ham turn into a wheelbarrow that will be pulled by the way of salami with trees of bacon around it.
In this sight, the main ingredients are:
Ham: sky, mountains,waterfall and river; Bread: rocks; Grissini biscuits: house and trapiche; Salami: brickworks
In this alipne scene, the stars are the cold meat. Grissini biscuits and Parma
ham turn into the sleigh pulled by the mountains of snow made of other cold meat, as smoked turkey and Bologna. The Parma ham is also located on the “pines”.
The photos will be used by a british supermarket chain in an advertising campaign, and Warner also thinks in putting them all together on a book to promote a healthy feeding among children.
I guess the campagin will work, I didn´t feel like eating, after seeing so much good stuff...
