Some of the famous Food Face mosaics by Ferris Plock and Kelly Tunstall. Feeding young children can be tough. Sometimes they get focused on a very limited diet and it can be hard to break them out of it. Ferris Plock and Kelly Tunstall had that problem with one of their young children. Their solution: Create an intricate mosaic of fruits and vegetables that is irresistible, leading to an inevitable nibble.
“He was having a hard time being convinced that he needed to be eating solid food. Once I made a face he wanted to play with it, and then he wanted to pick it up, and I said, ‘Hey you can take a bite of this.’ And it led to more experimental eating,” says Plock outside of The Richfield, a cafe in his Inner Richmond neighborhood.
The Food Face project grew into a regular request from both of the couple’s kids, Brixton and Gus. Then it got picked up by other parents, even culminating in a book called “Food Faces” . Now the project has gone global on social media, inspiring parents around the world to share their creations with the hashtag #foodface.“The boys are eating more meals outside of the home, so it has become more of a weekend tradition,” said Plock.
Yet it still the comical dishes have helped maintain household sanity and humor over these last few years.“It brings joy to everyday life, but it’s also a fleeting and temporary creation.”Kelly Tunstall and Ferris Plock and their children.
