Famous Photos of Explosions Recreated in Cauliflower

Posted by John Farrier in Art & Design, Photography on February 8, 2012 at 8:05 pm


Here at Neatorama, we often feature the work of artist Brock Davis. His genius lies in seeing hidden forms in ordinary objects, like a treehouse in a sprig of broccoli or a bearskin rug in a gummi bear. One of Davis’s latest projects depicts famous explosions using cauliflower and skewers. Pictured above is the tragic destruction of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986. His other pieces in the set show the wreck of the Hindenburg and the atomic bombing of Nagasaki.

The great thing about the work of artist Brock Davis is that he accomplishes so much using such simple materials with minimal changes. Like this tree house that he built for his son. It’s just a stalk of broccoli, balsa wood, and glue. Link -via Colossal

Stonehenge Model Made out of Rice Krispies

Suddenly, the challenge of moving enormous stone slabs using Neolithic technology doesn’t look so daunting, as artist Brock Davis illustrates in this piece entitled “Rice Krispyhenge”. Presumably the stones were held in place with marshmallow.
