My contest entry for the LOVE YOUR BODY campaign, hosted by Nowfoundation
Hope it wins. This was also our typography assignment. Edit 23-11-08. Many many thanks to ^ArhcamtIlnaad for hosting this work and also thanks to Sander-Seto for suggesting this to be a daily deviation. I had never expected such a simple assignment to go this far... today I have received the biggest sugar high I can ever get. Daily DeviationGiven 2008-11-21From the suggester: Love your body. by *hersheydesai is a lovely and unique text art piece with a good concept behind it. This is what I found when I went to the site from Nowfoundation: ''Hollywood and the fashion, cosmetics and diet industries work hard to make each of us believe that our bodies are unacceptable and need constant improvement. Print ads and television commercials reduce us to body parts — lips, legs, breasts — airbrushed and touched up to meet impossible standards. TV shows tell women and teenage girls that cosmetic surgery is good for self-esteem. Is it any wonder that 80% of U.S. women are dissatisfied with their appearance? Women and girls spend billions of dollars every year on cosmetics, fashion, magazines and diet aids. These industries can't use negative images to sell their products without our assistance. Together, we can fight back.'' *hersheydesai shows us with his amazing text art piece that he's fighting back and makes us aware that we must love our body.
