Anthony Chidiac created this quirky collection of fruit carvings made from small kiwis that have been re-imagined as iconic pop culture characters. This collection is simply called 'I Revealed The Secret Identity Of Scheming Kiwi Fruits.'
Each small fruit has been carefully hand-carved to reveal a range of identities from historical politicians to iconic comic book characters. A few interesting characters that appear as one of these fruit carvings are Kim Kardashian, Batman, Frankenstein and Scream. All of the characters have been carefully selected due to their notable features. For example, Ron Burgundy from the Anchor Man film is represented by removing all of the kiwis skin, aside from a single patch to symbolize his memorable mustache.
This humorous art project is a clever way to transform fruit into pop culture figures, while also paying tribute to the iconic characters within society.
