Product Flows
In the series Product Flows, I focus on the tension between the pleasure of purchasing goods and the guilt of engaging in the glut of consumer marketing and waste while working as a graphic designer who feeds into the system.
In the series, I alter and paint the packaging of goods that I have consumed — rebranding them — and then integrate them into assemblages that reference marketing process artifacts. I photograph these assemblages in the style of product photography and then digitally distort them by misusing an AI-powered image editing tool — subverting the tool's image-perfecting power to create a colorful cacophony that is equal parts enticing and overwhelming.
