Our artistic references for this piece span two very different, yet connected, ways of seeing.

Campbell’s Soup Cans by Andy Warhol elevates the everyday – a pantry staple repeated until it becomes iconic. It asks us to reconsider what we overlook, to find beauty in the familiar, and to recognise the role of consumption and ritual in our daily lives.

In contrast, Tomato Portrait by Shengyi Lee slows us down. It invites close looking – at the surface of the fruit, its imperfections, its individuality. Here, the tomato is no longer generic, but singular. Observed. Appreciated. Beautiful. 

Between these two works, we find a dialogue: mass and individual, processed and grown, repeated and unique.

The Tomato-tini sits within this space. It celebrates the tomato not just as an ingredient, but as an experience – of growing, harvesting, preparing, and sharing. It acknowledges the satisfaction of picking something at its peak, the flavour that comes from care, and the quiet joy of eating (or drinking) something you’ve nurtured from the ground up. These tomatoes came from our own garden and were seedings from Kuch Plants. 

From a row of tins on a shelf to a single fruit in your hand, from the garden bed to the glass – creativity lives here. Take this as an invitation to notice the season, to celebrate the harvest, and to find beauty in the everyday.
