Catalogue Of The New Planet


Catalogue Of The New Planet

Direct marketing mail, such as supermarket deals and catalogues, makes up more than half of my recycling bin. I embark on a quest to create statement catalogues out of selected pages of food, vacation and event advertisements as a response to artificially stimulated consumption that fills up not our shopping carts but our garbage bins. I am editing these pages with a black sharpie and leaving just pieces of content that depict food products (mostly meat) and body parts. Fragmented information, taken out of context and simplified, then leads to new narratives inspired by desert islands and celestial objects. These new pages offer a brochure of ecological mayhem.
