About the Item

A witty and whimsical chromogenic print in diptych format from the Minimiam Series by Akiko Ida and Pierre Javelle. This small scale scene in green, yellow, blue, red, and white depicts two figures inhabiting surreal landscape as one sweeps away sugar crumbs and another adds sugar cubes to coffee. Photographs are face mounted on plexiglas and do not require framing. AKIKO IDA & PIERRE JAVELLE “LES MINIMIAMS”: Akiko Ida and Pierre Javelle combine photography, magical landscapes, culinary backdrops, and portraiture to create settings inhabited by diminutive characters, referred to as minimiam. Each diptych reveals to the viewer a whimsical land that plays with our minds, as well as the subject. The team met at Arts Decoratifs de Paris where they studied photography. Akiko, Japanese, has always been attracted to the world of gastronomy. As a child, she invented tiny characters that populated her journal. She is a renowned food photographer. Akiko has participated in more than 30 cookbooks and her work is published in international magazines. Pierre, French, grew up on comics. He is published in major gourmet magazines and his still-like photographs appear in corporate commercials.
