Today I have a bit of a hint as to what the next “Where It’s Art” series will focus on. Feel free to try to guess what it is as you gaze at these vegetable masterpieces.
Ju Duoqi’s current art began in 2006 with several kilograms of peas. She now uses all sorts of vegetables (onions, potatos, radishes, carrots, etc.) in all sorts of forms (dried, boiled, fried, mashed, diced, etc.) to create art that is entirely new, yet makes you think that you’ve seen something very similar before…
A)
B)
C)
D)
If you’re interested, the pieces of art that the above are modeled after are as follows: A) Jacques-Louis David’s “Napoleon Crossing the Alps” B) Marc Chagall’s “Birthday” ; C) Gustav Klimt’s “The Kiss” ; D) Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa”
Enjoy!
