Photographer Matthew Carden‘s incredible “Small World” food photography offer an entirely new perspective one the foods we consume, interspersing tiny figures amid towering broccoli treetops, massive mushroom forests, and colossal candied yams. His work aims to “make viewers more aware of what they eat, and to think about food as an integral part of our world.” Each edible landscape is a provocative close-up investigation of the foods that sustain us. With the Thanksgiving holiday and all the gluttony that it entails now upon us, Carden’s work feels especially relevant. Before you dive into your turkey and sweet potatoes, take a fresh look at food and the way we consume it with Matthew Carden’s innovative art.
