"Food Not Food" is a photography series of fake food made completely from ordinary household items. I started "Food Not Food" because I needed a creative outlet and wanted to do something completely out of the box. I love food but I can't cook to save my life, and fake food doesn't burn (normally).

Everyday items have since become so much more interesting. A shoelace becomes fettuccine, a bath sponge becomes a beer, matches become greasy french fries. I see food everywhere now - it's either the best or the worst diet plan ever.

    The series "Food Not Food" masterfully transforms mundane everyday items into delightful visual gastronomy, echoing the experience of seeing food items in a new light.

    Similarly, the creative brain behind another artistic venture sees potential in everyday edibles by reimagining them with a twisted eye. This approach not only redefines what food can symbolize but also how we perceive it creatively.
