About Food in Nature Fotografia gastronomica
Food in Nature è un progetto di fotografia gastronomica realizzato per un ristorante di pesce a Ho Chi Minh, in Vietnam. La serie presenta i piatti di un nuovo menu di alta cucina, e a ciascuna portata sono dedicati un impaginato e un racconto propri. Il concept collega il cibo alla natura mostrando fiori fragili che crescono da pietre aride, una scena che evoca sopravvivenza e crescita. Vengono esaltati i colori vibranti dei fiori e le forme insolite delle pietre. È stata impiegata luce artificiale per imitare i riflessi luminosi del mare ed esprimere la freschezza dei frutti di mare.
