Paolo Vanda — Tuttifrutti

Tuttifrutti (2016)

I made these images photographing different kinds of fruits and vegetables first and then using Photoshop to make digital collages.
The project was an exploration of the opportunities offered by the digital tools. Compared to the original technique with scissors and glue, Photoshop allowed me to use photos as a source of colors and to draw freely with them.
The result is a series of images half way between photography and drawing, balancing between abstraction and representation, as the initial subject can still be retraced in the texture and colors of the different kinds of fruits while the shapes are set free through the use of Photoshop.
