German photographer Uli Westphal likes to photograph vegetables, but not the usual kind. His work the
Mutato-Archive presents a collection of non-standard fruits, roots and vegetables, that displays a dazzling variety of forms, colors and exotic shapes. Uli Westphal writes
The complete absence of botanical anomalies in our supermarkets has caused us to regard the consistency of produce presented there as natural. Produce has become a highly designed, monotonous product. We have forgotten, and in many cases never experienced, the way fruits, roots, and vegetables can actually look. The Mutato-Project serves to document, preserve and promote these last survivors of biological variety.
His specimens are picked up from Berlin’s Farmer Market.
