PICA South American Kitchen 
"Capturing the Art of Flavor"


At Symbiosis, we believe that food photography is more than just capturing dishes—it’s about telling a story, evoking flavors, and preserving the artistry behind every plate. Our collaboration with Pica South American Kitchen was a celebration of craftsmanship, culture, and the shared passion for creating unforgettable dining experiences.​​​​​​​
Bringing Pica’s Vision to Life

In partnership with Chef Cristian Encina and Monica, we embarked on a project that went beyond food styling. Our goal was to document the soul of Pica—from the meticulous plating of each dish to the energy of the kitchen.
• Food Styling Photography → Showcasing the vibrant flavors, textures, and colors that define South American cuisinewith a meticulous eye for composition and lighting.
• Kitchen Documentary → Capturing the raw moments behind the scenes—the movement, the hands at work, and the dedication poured into every dish.
• Authenticity & Atmosphere → Ensuring each shot felt immersive, warm, and true to Pica’s intimate dining experience in the heart of Ubud.


A Shared Passion for Craft

This collaboration was not just about photography; it was about translating taste into visuals, energy into still moments, and tradition into timeless imagery. At Symbiosis, we work hand-in-hand with visionary chefs and restaurateurs to create imagery that makes flavors come alive—because every plate has a story to tell.
