Russian food stylist and photographer Tatiana Shkondina elevates everyday food to high art by using it to create playful reproductions of iconic paintings by the likes of Dalí, Magritte, Klimt, van Gogh and more. Shkodina spent a lot of time researching the best edible materials to use for her recreations and, as a result, each one is instantly recognizable and the famous painting on which its based.The unmistakable work of Salvador Dalí takes shape using bread, pasta, cheese and seasonings, while René Magritte appears in the form of fruits and veggies. Watermelon, cheese, yogurt and chocolate comprise the geometric work of Piet Mondrian and two different paintings by Vincent van Gogh are beautifully recreated using peppers and lentils for one and rice, grapes and pasta for the other.
Post-production for this delightful project was done by Russian photographer Alex Tivanov.
