CABBAGE AND ART: JU DUOQI

Genius of a young Chinese artist. Ju Duoqi is not new in the use of food to create her works. The vegetables were the star, but now is the time of the cabbage. Her new project is called "The fantasies of Chinese cabbage." Only Chinese cabbage!!!

Cabbage come to life to become dolls, or emulation icons such as Marilyn Monroe, and Lady Gaga. It's pure creativity that liberates the imagination. Even the famous paintings of Van Gogh, Da Vinci and Warhol are played with colorful vegetables.

She uses a knife to slice the different colours and varieties of cabbage and holds them together using toothpicks. The cabbage is left to age for varying lengts of time.

Every piece of the sculpture is made from the vegetable, including their clothes, hats and jewellery.
