Each design interpreted a famous modern artist's work as food on a plate, which was then photographed.<br /><br />The series of placemats won the 2009 Gold from the <a href="http://www.ed-awards.com/">European Design Awards</a> in the Miscellaneous Print category.<br /><br />If you are familiar with the following artists whose work has been turned into food on a plate, you will really appreciate these. For those who are not, I included a piece of their work below each placemat image, so you can have a better appreciation of how clever these are. And I think it makes for a much more interesting post.
