Photographer Turns Dull, Deconstructed Lunches Into Colorful Works Of Art

Cafeteria lunches can get boring over time. Especially if seen five days a week. Photographer and artist David Schwen, who has an eye for the creative, was able to remedy this.

Schwen created a series of cafeteria lunches for the Daily Share which deconstructs popular hot lunches into its basic components. If you think a taco or a hamburger separated into ingredients is boring, think again. His minimalist style of shooting the most mundane foods and turning them into works of art is rather impressive.

The series also acts as a “How To” in case anyone had any reservations about how to put together these select lunches.
