Illustrator and graphic designer Erin Jang (aka @theindigobunting) plays with her food to form whimsical works of art. Appropriately dubbed “food faces” she arranges edibles on a plate that resemble facial features of various sizes and shapes. Erin has impressively fashioned hair from octopi, eyes from fried eggs, eyebrows out of sesame pork, and so much more. It’s a lot of fun to see what comprises each face!
These assemblages started appearing a year ago on Erin’s Instagram—she makes them for her young son, Miles, using the hashtag #milesfoodfaces. Since that time, she’s also created them for a Lucky Peach feature called Food Faces.
