# Fresh Fruity Faces Carolina Amoretti Creates Healthy Heads By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-02-04 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carolina-amoretti References: [trendland.net](http://trendland.net/vegetation-totems-project-by-carolina-amoretti/) & [amoretticarolina.blogspot](http://amoretticarolina.blogspot.com/p/totem-vegetable.html) 'TOTEM' is a series of totem-pole faces by Carolina Amoretti created completely out of fruit and vegetables. These faces are actually quite ominous against a pitch-black background, and would look even scarier if they were stacked atop each other. With demon eyes made of vitamin C-packed oranges and a glowing red apple for a mouth, the Rafiki-esque baboon looks like he contains mystical powers. All of the statues appear as if they have an evil spirit inside them that is dying to escape. The only way to destroy these terrifying faces is to eat them. The fruity creations of Carolina Amoretti would be the perfect thanksgiving dinner for any vegan family brave enough to eat these terrifying faces. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Totem-pole Art:** Explore the trend of creating totem-pole style artwork using unconventional materials, such as fruits and vegetables, to create unique and visually captivating pieces. - **Edible Art:** Discover the trend of using food as a medium for artistic expression, blurring the line between culinary creativity and visual art. - **Terrifying Food Sculptures:** Uncover the trend of sculpting eerie and eerie-looking food sculptures that combine elements of horror and art, creating visually striking and unsettling pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can utilize the trend of edible art to create visually appealing food presentations, enticing customers with unique dining experiences. - **Visual Arts:** Visual artists can explore the trend of creating totem-pole art using unconventional materials, pushing the boundaries of traditional art forms and captivating audiences with innovative visual storytelling. - **Event Planning:** Event planners can incorporate the trend of terrifying food sculptures into themed events, adding an element of surprise and intrigue to create memorable experiences for attendees. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fruit-Inspired Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruitinspired-furniture-collection.md) - [Naturally Powered Skincare](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-lush-skincare.md) - [Festive Tomato Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/da-de-muertos-seasonal-medley.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Flesh Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junji-ito.md) - [Product-Inspired Halloween Looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Fruit Waste Ink Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-waste-ink.md) - [Grotesque Halloween Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-pizza-campaign.md) - [Unique Hybrid Mystery Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animal-x-vegetable-gachapon.md)
