For the second day of our week long project “The Day Today”, I read an article regarding obesity in children of around the ages four and five. In the article, many parents blamed the “Buy One Get One Free” deals that are popular in Uk supermarkets. Most of these deals are associated with unhealthy foods like crisps, chocolate, ect. The first thing that caught my eye was the shapes of the unhealthy snacks. I started to simplify them and colour them in frequent used colours in snack packaging. By overlapping, I was hoping to recreate the amount of deals you see in supermarkets, however I liked the outline shape that the shapes made. With only then focusing on what the outline was and then colouring them I feel the final shapes reminded me of jigsaw pieces. With this project I experimented more, rather than focusing too much on having a final pice, which I feel helped me develop my ideas more. I would have liked to further go on and look into logos and how we see them as shapes. I feel this turned successful and I could further develop this into an interesting piece.
