While some folks opt for more traditional mediums to express themselves, one artist is turning to a more unconventional mode of artistry. Michele Baldini must’ve been really hungry when he first discovered his passion for this kind of art—because his pieces are made out of eggs!
His first attempt came for the creation of a yin-yang symbol created from the yolk and white of an egg separated and placed very intentionally on a pan. “From that moment, the ideas kept flowing, each design becoming more intricate than the last. I used to share my creations on my personal account, but in 2017 I decided to create The Eggshibit,” wrote Michele.
He’s tried other food mediums, but he can’t help but keep coming back to eggs. “While I’ve experimented with other foods and materials, eggs remain my favorite. There’s something uniquely calming and captivating about the contrast of the egg white and yolk against a black background,” he told Bored Panda.
Though the fried egg might seem simple, Baldini has managed to make it truly eye-catching. His works are not only tasty looking but truly one of a kind. “I think what sets my egg art apart is the intriguing use of an everyday object—the fried egg—to portray something equally familiar, like another object, symbol, or even a landscape. This combination creates a sense of relatability while sparking curiosity, making it both thought-provoking and uniquely engaging,” wrote Michele.
