Here Are Human Flags Eating Their Country’s Food [NSFW]
These models are taking national foodie pride to a new level. French photographer Jonathan Icher paired up with makeup artist Anastasia Parquet to remind us that any food in excess can lead to obesity, no mater how delicious or what stereotypes we associate with it. Ms. Parquet used her magic to cover models in paint, turning them into their nation’s flags. Next, Icher stuffed their faces with their national foods and started the camera.
Yes. It’s supposed to be creepy and no, you probably won’t feel hungry after clicking through the photo series. But that’s the point Icher is trying to make. The “Fat Flag” photos, as the collection is called, are more about making a statement than being enticing. Or pretty. Or appetizing.
How do you feel about these peculiar portraits? Let us know in the comments below!
