Food in Nature
Photography for FPDB Creative
This project is for the new menu of a restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. First, the inspiration came mostly from the origin of culinary art. Answering that question "Where does the food come from?" the final idea is about how food should connect closely to Mother Nature. "Food, flowers and stones" is a returning journey to mother nature, which captures the moment of fragile flowers growing from arid stones. By illustrating nicely-styled dishes in the beauty of nature, the project gives a touch of survival and growth.
