Artisan Brunch Is the Photo Series Turning Your Favourite Meal Into Famous Works of Art
Giving iconic artworks the food-focused makeover no one ever realised they needed — until now.
What would Salvador Dali's melting clocks look like if they were replaced by eggs? Or Yayoi Kusama's dots with circles of tomato sauce? Forget however your local cafe plates up smashed avo — designer Kyle Bean, photographer Aaron Tilley and food stylist Lucy-Ruth Hathaway's Artisan Brunch photo series turns everyone's favourite mid-morning meal into art.
Created for an issue of Kinfolk magazine, the trio gives a quintet of iconic artworks the food-focused makeover no one ever realised they needed until now. Here, bacon, sausages and toast hang from strings in the style of Cornelia Parker, and a pancake feast becomes an Alexander Calder-esque mobile. And then there's the the savvy switching of a sea predator for the green fruit supposedly slaying all of our finances — aka Damien Hirst's formaldehyde-suspended shark swapped with half an avocado.

Yes, they're playing with their food just like their mums probably told them not to, and yes, these famous works never looked tastier. Bean and company's pieces might make you look at art and brunch in a whole new way — or, they might just make you hungry.
