Western Spaghetti- PES

This pixilation for me is extremely effective, breaking the boundaries of what we consider to be 'normal' cooking ingredients and producing an abstract representation of this through alternate objects, such as Rubik cubes and knitting wool to represent the format of spaghetti. PES uses significant objects such as dice in a few of his pieces, all altering the purpose of what the object is originally created for.

I personally like the fact that PES applied the characteristics of original ingredients of spaghetti and applied them to potential objects. It's made clear that a considerable amount of thought has been put into the choice of objects, with the pin cushions resembling tomatoes etc. The way the objects interacted with the organic objects that he kept the same through cooking (pans and spoons that would normally be used) was part of the overall success in my opinion, such as having the sticky notes melt like butter, and the Rubik cubes sliced into smaller pieces.
