Food Maps by Henry Hargreaves and Caitlin Levin

New Zealand-based artist Henry Hargreaves and New York-based food stylist Caitlin Levin create these collection of maps made out of real food.




South America map made from citrus fruits

"These maps show how food has traveled the globe - transforming and becoming a part of the cultural identity of that place. Who doesn't know the saying 'throw some shrimp on the barbie' and not think of Australia? Who goes to France without eating bread and cheese? And who makes a Brazilian caipirinha without a fistful of limes?"



United States map made from corn

"These maps are a playful representation of our interpretation of food from around the world, painstakingly created with real unadulterated food. This project speaks to the universality of how food unites people, brings us together and starts conversation - just as we hope these beautiful maps will do too."
