If some great artists invited you to brunch, how would you imagine it to be?
Yayoi Kusama, Alexander Calder, Salvador Dalì, Damien Hirst and Cornelia Parker: Kylie Bean pays homage to these great artists in his Artisan Brunch project.
The London based artist and designer takes inspiration from their well-known artworks to make a series of still life pictures for Kinfolk Magazine, in collaboration with food stylist Lucy-Ruth Hathaway and photographer Aaron Tilley.
To build up his "brunch installations" Kylie Bean uses the iconic elements of brunch (avocado, eggs, sausages, ketchup, bread…) to compose a series of sculptures based on the iconic style of each one of these artists.
The result is a number of pictures that will make you crave brunch and remind you that art can be everywhere, even in the way you serve bacon and eggs.
