It is amazing the endless inspiration that can go on behind a simple [food photography project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) such as the Taste Shapes According to the Nature series. With a few basic props such as straws and even a man's leg as well as strategic carvings, the [fruits and vegetables featured](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-european-produce) throughout are given a life of their own.

Whether portrayed as the heel of a shoe, a finger with painted nails or a vampire wannabe, the produce featured throughout the Taste Shapes According to the Nature series are quirky and creative. A collaborative project between Fubiz and Fricote magazine, it appears in the latter's 13th issue. The [fun still life images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taste-our-world) were designed by Felipe Barbosa with the help of Rafael Medeiros.
