Things I Like - Art

I almost posted these on Wednesday as a ‘food’ item but they are truly art.

Pierre Javelle and Akiko Ida: The MINIMIAM Universe
(click to enlarge images)

From Do the Max:

Paris-based artists, Pierre Javelle and Akiko Ida have morphed multiple genres of photography, including micro-photography, culinary art, portraiture and landscape. The theme involves action, ranging from sporting scenes to
warfare, taking place in carefully staged, fantastic, food settings. In each diptych, the first image introduces the subjects in an uncertain setting. The second panel reveals the scene in totality, to an unexpected, often amusing end.

I saw them first on Paintalicious but couldn’t get a direct link (try this link and scroll down to the middle of the page).


The artists’ site wasn’t functioning when I visited, it may be back up by now.
