Market Place (Assignment II)

I constructed this picture by assembling several photos from the web in Photo Shop. I used several after affects to give the image more visual starkness. The image isn't supposed to be condemning of corporations but of the people who are blinded by them. To me the image is a critique on how impersonally modern people provide for themselves.

In this picture I was trying to capture the what it means to gather goods and disconnect between developed and developing nations. I'm not necessarily trying to criticize the means people use or say what is right and wrong, I mainly just wanted to juxtapose these two things in an extreme, ironic way.  I did the darkening of the sky as a sort of last minute thing. The meaning of it is open to interpretation. I suppose it could represent the duality of mankind. I tried to transcend the topic of class warfare as much as possible, I hope this isn't interpreted in that way. I really just wanted to make it about the extreme difference of cultures and how neither is right or wrong but both still exist.
