Ukrainian digital artist Vasya Kolotusha, known for his realistic and colorful style that combines bright patterns with innovative neon-themed pieces, has created stunning artwork for Food & Wine's July 2025 feature on restaurant automation. Kolotusha, who specializes in taking recognizable objects and giving them a digital shine, applies his signature "iridescent" technique to transform the potentially sterile world of restaurant robots into something visually captivating and approachable.

For this Food & Wine piece about automated restaurant equipment like Chipotle's avocado-processing "Autocado," his artistic approach perfectly captures the intersection of culinary tradition and technological innovation.
