Shell of Plenty
Photoshop and photography, 2026
The Shell of Plenty was an early concept within the poster series for the Freaky Food Festival, inspired by the classic horn of plenty. In this design, an abundance of seafood flows from a shell, serving as a visual symbol of wealth and excess.
The final image was constructed in Photoshop. Vector files of flames were used as a mask to control the texture of the sauce, with orange and dark red colors added to give depth and movement.
The image was technically good, but the idea was rejected. Compared to later designs, it did not have enough visual unity. The Shell of Plenty remains a successful experiment that led to a better, more unified final result.
