What a cute little guy! This potato, with arms, legs, and a nose, was harvested in Huon, Tasmania, where it’s summer now. Link -Thanks, Vit Peyr!

Ju Duoqi's Vegetable Art

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts, Food & Drinks, Pictures on November 28, 2008 at 3:45 pm


Mona Tofu by Ju Duoqi

Chinese artist Ju Duoqi, 35, specializes in a unique art medium: vegetables! (well, technically digital veggies – but who cares?). Behold her masterpiece above, the veggie Mona Lisa ("Mona Tofu") made out of rice, sea kelp, and tofu.

In The Vegetable Museum series, she revisits in a stunning way some masterpieces of the western painting. Making use of vegetables and food of China’s everyday life – tofu, cabbage, ginger, lotus roots, coriander, sweet potato… – and through digital manipulation, she presents a puzzling series of vegetable compositions representing world famous paintings like Mona Lisa, The Cene by Leonard Da Vinci, The Dream by Pablo Picasso or Marilyn Monroe by Warhol.

Here are a few more:
