Rough project notes project 2

For the project of consumption I have had a couple of ideas drifting around.

  1. How we all say we want peace but when we watch violence/sex in a movie we just want more and can never get enough
  2. Americans are obsessed with becoming better in every way shape and form, either by moral ways or unmoral ways
  3. How many people have a mask that they wear, intentionally or unintentionally, and refuse to be real because they honestly dont know how.
  4. People go through their lives consumed with the mundane/everyday happenings/conversations. ex. "hey how are you?"" Good how are you?" "Good, well see you later." is there really nothing else to talk about
  5. Many people are very negative and most of these people are focused on how much their life sucks, when in reality its pretty good, education, job, friends, family, food, shelter, the list goes on. The get so consumed with themselves that they forget about a friend whose father has just died or something similar to that effect.
As far as materials I dont know yet. thinking about a series of photos for mundane idea, using mundane photos to get the message across.

Thought about a wood cutting just to try it out.

Thought about a video but i have no equipment for it so that would be hard.

Using a mask/ something similar to a face for the mask idea. cover one side with what people show vs. who they are.

that is it so far. Have a good day
