Psychedelic hubcaps? Jungian mandalas? Aerial views of Photoshopped crop circles? NO! Just some freakishly detailed pieces of art by New York’s Fernando Mastrangelo made of black beans, cornmeal, sugar and chili.

No, you may not poke them.

  1. My initial reaction was sadness that the works lack permanence (I assume from the materials), but upon reflection I think that’s part of their importance – to impart the idea that everything in this world is transient, even (or especially) the beautiful things we wish to hang on to the most.

    These are beautiful. I love the color combinations.

  3. June Jewell says:

    It would make for excellent cd art! That’s what I thought it was at first. If I were a musician, I’d call him up.

    I really
    really

    want to poke them
