Artist Statement
This photograph communicates the over consumption of products and merchandise, especially from the lens of a woman in the early 2000s. The composition visually communicates ideas about stereotypical girly products, consumerism, glamour, and how women are often catered too to buy more and more products. With a majority of the color palate being shades of pink, the viewer can instantly know without even diving into the objects themselves that this image is for women. Then looking further into the photo there is various makeup and beauty products like the eye shadow, blush, powder puff, makeup brushes, and nail polish. These items help both set up the idea for a more stereotypical girl look, as well as visualized the over consumption of these kinds of products. Finally at the centerpiece, a burger and fries with mustard and ketchup on the side to further show consumerism. However with these products they have been glamorized. the burger has gems instead of seeds on the top to dress it up, and the sauces are covered in glitter to make them more shiny and appealing.
