Looking it up, it turns out it’s an actual turnip, carved to look like this.

Not trying to downplay how cool the piece is, but the artists website says it’s
acrylicurethane with real Daikon leaves:
Well now I’m sad. Thanks for looking deeper than me!
It’s still a really cool piece of art! Their other works are really fascinating and well-executed too - I especially like the kiwi with the hairy butthole and the… uh… scrotumfruit?
That’s what I was hoping! That’s genuinely impressive

This looks like AI, too many details in the toes, rest of the foot, legs and knees. It would be a wonder to find one such turnip, let alone a matching one
It’s too good for AI, but photoshop, maybe AI in photoshop idk…
Yeah, photoshop is also possible, but I think a human would have tried to make it at least believable (no nails on the toes for example)
I wonder if this an evolution of the square watermelons known in Japan.
I doubt you could make it have this level of details and I think that technique cannot be used for stuff that is grown in the soil
You’re probably right, and this in particular seems to be a sculpture with a turnip plant glued on top, per @Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de
That def makes the most sense aside from Photoshop or AI.
I don’t know much about growing produce, but I’d think making a mold for something that grows underground would be more difficult than something that grows on top of the soil.
*My bad- should have read previous comments closer. Good convo yall
It has the correct number of toes so not AI.
Crazy how nature do dat.
