Sustained Investigation Five

14x10

For my fifth sustained investigation, I worked with the ideas of brands and school lunch. I tried putting big brands that serve unhealthy food to kids into the foods they produce and distribute. Interestingly, the conflict around school lunch has been a constant debate within the government and in school districts. I took elements of normal foods that are given to students each day and slice the brands into the food showing the connection between what you are eating and what brands are giving.

Like my other works, I used Illustrator took to create the form for the work and sliced them up to add in the logos so that you see the brand logo put into the food. I used mainly the paintbrush and pen tool, plus I did a bunch of masking to get the logo to show through.

What I could have done better is maybe working on the tater tots some more I just don't like the way they turned out. They look messy rather than complete. But I like how the burger and pizza came out cause I feel they represent the idea really strongly.
