from bags to make up, vitamins photo series reimagines real vegetables as everyday objects
"Vitamins is a collaborative project by designer Eleonore Buschinger's Vitamin Color and photographer Tabea Mathern that explores vegetables as a material for contemporary image-making. Developed in New York, the series presents sculptural still lifes in which everyday objects, from accessories to familiar household items, are reconstructed entirely from produce. By replacing industrial materials with organic ones, the project invites a new way of looking at both objects and food."
"The collaboration brings together two complementary practices: Vitamin Color's long-standing exploration of vegetables as cultural and emotional objects, and Mathern's bold, tactile approach to image-making that blends photography, , and visual storytelling. the project sits at the intersection of food, fashion, and contemporary design | all images by Tabea Mathern Vitamin Color's work by Eleonore Buschinger is driven by a broader mission to reframe vegetables as objects of joy, beauty, and cultural value rather than symbols of restriction or sacrifice."
Eleonore Buschinger's Vitamin Color and photographer Tabea Mathern collaborated to explore vegetables as materials for contemporary image-making. The series, developed in New York, composes sculptural still lifes that reconstruct everyday objects—from accessories to household items—entirely from produce. Industrial materials are replaced with organic ones to invite a new perspective on objects and food. The work reframes vegetables as objects of joy, beauty, and cultural value instead of symbols of restriction. Each object was handcrafted from real vegetables, fruits, and herbs, then assembled, photographed, and dismantled, making each piece inherently fragile and time-sensitive. Production followed a workflow aligned with fashion and product photography.
