I am delighted to present COLOUR, my most ambitious and conceptual Food Art Story to date.
COLOUR is a visual response to my own personal journey, learnings, struggles and successes from becoming a full-time food creative at the end of 2024 after years of juggling my photography and styling work with my role as a graphic designer.
Drawing inspiration from multiple creative fields including Fashion, Beauty and Fine Art, the project gleans references from the imagery of these disciplines and the works of artists Yayoi Kusama, Jackson Pollock, Maria Bartuszová and Es Devlin, to create a collection centred around the idea of No Colour.
Carefully choosing food subjects that were either black or white and interpreting them in bold and creative ways, each image presents a concept exploring the tones and shades that sit within these colours and how even within ourselves, our work and our feelings, nothing can ever truly be black and white.
In a first with this, my sixth Food Art Story, COLOUR is presented in its entirety within this limited edition art book. Designed and written by myself also, combining both my past and present passions and careers, the book is an ambitious labour of love:
