So this week I was scanning across some t.v. channels and happened upon MTV during the first episode of Paris Hilton's: My New BFF. It got me thinking about how people don't seem to value independent thought anymore, and how horribly fake our generation seems to be. I know this sounds pretentious of me to say, but how many fake blondes have you encountered today? You probably couldn't even count them on all your fingers and toes, right? SO, to demonstrate the way people are becoming startlingly similar to each other, I'm going to utilize a common mass-produced object: dolls.
For this project, I'm hoping to combine several different problems I see in society today to create a sort of commentary for each. By having them interact together, I'll show how they influence each other in daily life. As well as the social commentary using the doll, I'm going to combine imagery that speaks about the oil crisis, as well as the economic strife of America today. Keeping in mind the use of lines, light/shadow, and color I'll create a picture in which all of the objects (hopefully) interact in a realistic way to force the viewers eye to every topic being addressed; sort of like movement without moving.
(where a picture of a doll should be, but since I'm using my parent's computer nothing shows up.)
