Not interested in geography but LOVE food? Here is the perfect map for you!
Countries are culturally defined by many different aspects, one of the most recognizable being food. When most people think about a region or country, local food is typically one of those associations.
Inspired by a passion for travel, artists Caitlin Levin and Henry Hargreaves transformed mundane and easily recognizable maps of countries and continents into enticing works of art. Their medium of choice — food.
When traveling, experiencing local cuisine immerses you into a region’s customs. These maps help show how food has traveled across the globe through the years, and how people associate those foods with certain cultures.
