Octopus Banana / Domenic Bahmann / 2013

You had me at “Octopus Banana.” Nonetheless, Melbourne-based artist, Domenic Bahmann, has created a whole series of creative food art.

One common theme in the series is how Bahmann cleverly interprets animals using various foodstuffs. And, he found a great use for farfalle. Check out more below and over here.

Delicious-Looking Dishes Created With Inedible Objects

dishes-0

Although nobody appreciates being teased with delicious-looking food that’s actually inedible — when it’s done in the name of awesome food art, we’ll let it slide.

Artists Benjamin Henon and Valentine Mazel teamed up for this fun series of food art. Using everyday objects such as sponges and shoelaces — the objects are positioned to appear as though we’re about to have lunch. Big tease!

Meticulous Pits and Pyramids Made From Cookies, Candy and Sandwiches

The Pyramids of Giza are pretty cool, but they’re not made of food. These Pits and Pyramids, by photographer Sam Kaplan, are truly a wonder of architecture… and they don’t have any dead Egyptians in them.

Meticulously constructed from cookies, candies, and sandwiches — Kaplan stacks and films these pits and pyramids so precisely, that you’d swear they were generated by some computer program… or by the aliens who built those other famous pyramids.

Food And Everyday Objects Juxtaposed Is Serious Design

Food and art come together once again. This time, foodstuffs and everyday objects combine to mess with our minds.

Serious Design is an art series by Matija Erceg, that combines ordinary foods with ordinary objects. The result… vegetable crayons, meat purses, and jazz turkeys. See more below and over at Instagram.

More Foods Carefully Arranged To Form Gradients and Patterns

Photographer Emily Blincoe likes to arrange things neatly. Lucky for us, she also likes to take pictures, and documents her careful arrangements for all of us to enjoy.

There’s something very comforting about consistency in color and pattern — evidenced by a deconstructed bowl of Fruity Pebbles, a perfectly-segmented pizza, or consistent pickles. Nothing like consistent pickles.

See more below, and other neatly-arranged objects at Blincoe’s Instagram.
