I’m working on the Foolish Food collection, which activates associations and imagination. The basic components are various kinds of fruits or vegetables, which are manipulated in such a way that their original purpose is changed and transformed. So, instead of Pitahaya-fruit you can see Pitahaya-fish. Instead of an ordinary melon you can see an eared melon-head. It’s a play with things around us. Things that appear somehow to us, but reality can be quite different.
