Week 5: Collage Final Draft

Craft

For this version of my collage, I added more fruit and the shopper with the cart which proved difficult because of the low resolution photos. I used the same backdrop from the rough draft and but I add smokestacks which were one that was copied to create a row that symbolize a factory. I added smoke in photoshop to make them more recognizable as as smokestacks. Lastly, I did add the text "Fresh Produce" to draw the viewers eye to the factory in the back.

Concept

The concept that I chose to go with is the point at which food production in the U. S. becomes ridiculous. I try to achieve this by creating overgrown fruit in the foreground, overbearing the shopper who kind of struggles to push her cart. The factory in the background symbolizes the processing and how it is more chemical than natural growing.

Composition

The composition consists of the shopper in the foreground surrounded by overgrown fruits and vegetables. This is to make the distinction that this is a market or farm stand but the overgrown produce is the ironic part. The factory in the background then answers this irony. That is the general direction that the viewer's eyes should be lead.
