Food Not Food

Eggs that are actually lightbulbs. Cookies made from checkers. A sandwich made from flip flops. These are just a few of the illusions that Kristina (Kelly) Lechner, B.B.A.'11, creates for her Food Not Food photography series. 

"I've always had a passion for food but can't cook to save my life," she says. "I decided to create food look-alikes from materials I had laying around the house." 

Lechner started the project as a creative exercise and turned it into a popular feature, garnering attention from food and art lovers alike.
