Society of over-consumption: the giant stomach




by Christophe » 13/07/07, 22:11

Here is a job that I found very interesting done by my little sister (10 years younger). It's been on the blog for a while, but I just saw that we hadn't talked about it here.

A stomach lined with food detritus to denounce the consumer society?

We eat and digest brands and packaging much more than the food they contain.

This stomach represents what we visually "eat" in 2 to 3 weeks.

Brands today are so important that many people build on them to build themselves.

This "stomach" seen on a very large scale (approximately 1m x 1,50m x 0,5m) is all the more striking as it has been covered with a shiny and viscous layer aiming to imitate the human body.

It was created in February 2006 as part of plastic expression classes, with the theme "eating".

ps: NO the idea does not come from me and NO I did not stuff the cabbage too much with econology (well I do not think ... : Cheesy: ) in any case the "relief" arrives :)
