    I think your use of the two figures sitting back to back creates a really dramatic contrast that strongly backs your point.

    It’s the one of the most important issue in the world, and you represent it well.

    The use of the blending options in photoshop was used very well and the overall feeling of some sort of newspaper clipping type work is amazing.

    An interesting juxtaposition of issues, and good ones to merge with photoshop. Sort of disturbing how pop-y you’ve made it with the patterns and spots.

    When I first looked at this picture, it was immediately powerful and intriguing. You did a really nice job with color contrast; the image really pops. The use of the words “don’t” and “cant” sat with me for a while and I really like your connection between eating disorders and starving countries. The idea that there are people who are that way by misfortune as well as by choice is really powerful. Great job =]

    This is such a great piece that involves two completely different cultures’ issues with starvation. I love the use of the bright and vibrant colors especially in the sandwich.

  9. Meredith Says:

    the colors are very strong. I am a little confused why the words “can’t” and “don’t” are there. I think that you could choose a different food item, it is a little unclear. I really appreciate your inclusion of the red lines. For me, at least, they insinuate America and gluttony and make the piece very strong

    Feed the world.

    Assuming as I am that this is comparing someone who starves themselves and someone who is starving, I think this it is a really cool idea.

    Interesting blend of pretty graphics and disturbing imagery. The sandwich is difficult to identify though.
