Digital artist Cristian Girotto, recognizable for his distinct and unusual food-related work, has brought us another interesting series of digital creations. Girotto’s most recent project is titled “To the last candy” and depicts tasty treats in the shape of lethal weapons like knives, guns, and rifles. He did such a good job that you could easily mistake his work for real-life pictures of unusually shaped candy.

Although people interpreted this series in several different ways, the artist himself didn’t want to get into much details about the background of his work.

“This project is, of course, a bit politically driven but I don’t want to give any specific interpretation to the public. Some people told me they see the concept that you can nowadays have weapons as easy as you can have candy, others ones told me they see the idea of what we give to eat to our children is bad. Any other signification can be seen and I’m totally okay with it” – said Cristian of his creations.
