‘Cut food’ is a series of photographs by studio photographer Beth Galton, which exposes the innards of everyday culinary items. Together with stylist Charlotte Omnes, the duo divided each of the diverse food items, allowing for a surprising glimpse a the cross sections of commonplace eats. Particularly interesting are the halved liquids — some of the food items, such as the doughnut and the boiled eggs, were able to be cut smoothly in half without any manipulation but other tricky elements, like soup and coffee, required the use of a gelatin substance to solidify the fluid forms.
Galton’s continued work with still life and food photography led her to other conceptual projects: ‘The Series of Texture’, which features food surfaces covered in thick, paint like layers of condiments and ‘Idioms’, a project which put two juxtaposed elements side by side, visually communicating idiomatic phrases like ‘The Chicken and the Egg’ and ‘ Two Peas in a Pod’.
