Rubbish Lies

This is what I have come up with so far, and for now this is my final, unless I get hit by the big ball of inspiration and drastically change my mind.
The concept is simple, this is what rubbish means to me. Plastic fabricated lies by people we don't know, hypnotizing us to believe and focus on how others live their life that we forget to think about our own. I chose Barbie to be the main focus, because I believe Barbie's life/look is what girls and women alike strive for. The fantasy is rubbish, Barbie never ages, just like we expect celebrities never to get old either. Humanity is obsessed with perfection/imperfection, drama, scandal and illusion.
We believe all the rubbish we read and see, we strive to be better looking, while forgetting to be better people.

the damned and the beautiful

Visual Design for Digital Media

I have just started my dream course at uni! And I don't mean to brag, but I find my assignments quite FUN! For my Visual Design for Digital Media subject I have an Assignment to recreate the alphabet using 'Rubbish'.
As soon as we were told about our task, the first theme that popped in my head was plastic, fake ideas, tabloids, lies, illusions, etc.
I have a couple of ideas that I will expand on, I searched Barbies and I am looking to incorporate the 'plastic' idea with the tabloids, illusions and lies (pictures or cut-outs of magazines).
 My inspiration: Kurt Schwitters





And here are some of the ideas that I have collected for my own.
