Ginou Choueiri is an artist that creates amazing things our of usual potatoes. It is really incredible since his potato-people live their own lives, and die in a couple of weeks. I am amazed and impressed with his way to portray the human face. I have never thought that potatoes can look so human-like.

According to the artists, potatoes have much in common with people. For example, their skin is porous like ours and it comes in a number of colours, shapes and sizes.

Most of his masterpieces smiles and show us how unusual life can be and prove that sometimes parallels can be striking.
