A series of posters created by me and another girl in class to bring awareness to genetically modified foods and pesticides. We decided to do a photoshoot of a classy lady having a traditional dinner (chicken and vegetables) but she is wearing a gas mask. While doing research for this project, we found some pretty shocking facts about genetically modified foods and pesticides and we put these facts onto the poster hoping to shock consumers into making wise choices about the foods the purchase and eat. Some of these include, buying locally, growing your own food, eating organically etc.
The tagline we used in the bottom poster says 'According to the World Health Organization, 10,000 PEOPLE DIE annually due to pesticide poisoning. Three people are poisoned every minute all around the world. We put our trust in our government. We are entitled to know what's in our food. We are not being protected. Our government is hiding secrets within private documents about our food system. We feel this is... 100% BULLSHIT'
We hope that by bringing shocking statistics such as these we can change the way people buy food and ultimately how people make food.
