Each candy photograph is composed of up to 40 individual focus layers, to bring the objects entirely into focus. This expansion of the depth of field eliminates the sense of how big the objects actually are. The individual candies have then been scaled to the size of the fruits they represent.

Special thanks to Céline Hürzeler for her help in realizing this project.
