Andrea Colombu’s Portraits Superimpose Food Onto People’s Faces

In this series of portraits, photographer and artist Andrea Colombu superimposes a variety of different foods onto human faces with interesting results. Interestingly, the only colour present in the images comes from the food - the faces and the background are all black and white - and it is this colour which really makes the images come alive - kind of what food does really - gives us life!
