Ginou Choueiri's potato faces 0

Posted by Tiffology - In Art

Baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, french fries, and a canvas to draw on. Yes, you read that right. Ginou Choueiri uses potatoes to draw on human faces.

“I chose the potato to portray the human face due to the many striking parallels: their porous skin, their similar color, and like us, they come in different shapes and sizes.

The portraits are that of friends, family, people I’ve met along the way, as well as politicians and pop stars.”
