We all know and love Van Gogh’s Starry Night. We’ve seen so many variations of it, all of them inspiring. But we haven’t seen one made up from spices that we use. Kelly McCollam is a photographer that uses the spice of life to create tributes to masterpieces in her series of the same name. What blows my mind are the shaded nuances exhibited as she manipulates each grain to get the right effect. It a masterpiece in its own right, along with being a tribute to something that we sometimes take for granted (the spices, that is). The art even takes on the appearance of a Zen garden. Kelly really does understand the Spice of Life.
