She also goes by the nickname ‘Red’ because Hong sounds like the word ‘red’ in Mandarin. Last month, Hong challenged herself to create a new piece of food art for every day of March and share the results on Instagram. There were only two rules: 1. Only food can be used 2. The creations must be placed on a white plate, which serves as the backdrop In a recent interview with designboom, Hong explains: “My ‘creativity with food‘ series has helped me push the limits of my creativity, and has taught me to work within the confines of a very small area – my previous works range from 1 x 2 to 3 x 4 meters. I’ve learned to slice, dice, stir, boil…who would have thought I’d need that to do art!”  1. cherry tomatoes, nori and soy sauce <img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 2.long-grain rice and nori <img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 3.red onions, mint leaves<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-16.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 4. nori, apple<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-10.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Which artists or designers have influenced you the most?“Picasso. he has a famous quote… ‘all children are artists. the problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.’ This has influenced me to see joy and fun in ordinary, everyday items that I come across, and to paint and create objects as I feel and imagine them, not just as I see them. as an architect, I really admire pritzker prize winner and architect wang shu’s work, for his careful and clever use of recycled materials, his respect for tradition and context, and how his works have a monumental yet calm presence about them.” 5. ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, oyster sauce<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />6. oreo cookies<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />7. squid, squid ink<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />8.egg shells, hard-boiled egg<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />What’s the best piece of advice you have ever been given?“‘If you want something you’ve never had, do something you’ve never done’. It was this quote that drove me to start on my portraits withunusual materials, and also my current ‘creativity with food’ series. ‘Be kind, for everyone is fighting a hard battle’ is a quote by Plato that I holdclose to me, but is much easier said than done.” 9.chopped carrots, white radish, dried prunes<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />10.watermelon, watermelon seeds<img src="http://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/food-art-by-hong-yi-aka-red-1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />   හොඳනම් සලකලා යන්න අපි ගියා.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</blockquote>
