I wanted to explore the idea of "breakfast in bed" with this theme. This photo is a play on a few different things in today's culture. I'm not going to try and sound all profound and full of myself so I'll leave the image here open for interpretation. I find humour in this photo in a lot of different ways, but I'd love to hear what the rest of you take from it!

So here is my interpretation of the fast food theme. For the first image I wanted to make the fries look as tempting and desirable as possible. Their salty deep fried goodness glistening in the sunlight makes you want to just reach out and grab one. For the second image I wanted to make the bag look as disgusting and used as possible so I threw all the fries into the bag and squished them around to make the bag as greasy as I possibly could. I think the bag acts as a good metaphor for the deterioration of the human body witch is sped up when we consume fast food. Thank you in advance for your feedback and comments!

I know, i'm on a bit of a kick with this theme. But the series i'm working on is an exploration of the sexuality of food. I'm not very good at describing my work, but here it is to decipher it in your own way. Criticisms are MUCH appreciated! Love you all xxx <--- see what i did there.  A LITTLE PUN!

Does fast food decompose?
Well, a published report and evidence say no. Time to take this assignment to another level, i guess we'll all find out in April.

Take a look at this article i found witty and insightful.
I found myself agreeing with the author on multiple accounts.


"That's the real story here. It's not that McDonald's hamburgers won't decompose; it's thatpeople are stupid enough to eat them. But you won't find CNN reporting that story any time soon."

I decided to use a slow shutter speed during darker hours to make the lights stand out more. For example, the bright lights next to the building are the cars in the driveway.
I overlapped the two images over each other to give an interesting effect. Even though the part of the "M" is fully illuminated with ghostly lighting, it is still obvious that it is from McDonalds, thus showing how accustomed we are to this particular fast food chain.  :)

Jane Kuhn, Theme #1 Fast Food

So my idea basically came from Art History. If you guys remember the painting by Jacques-Louis David called Death of Marat. I basically re-created that painting and replaced Marat's writing tools with McDonald's. Basically the idea being that fast food is basically not healthy. Hope you like it :)

Black Hamburger- Michelle Nunes

So this is my photo for the theme fast food. I painted a hamburger (not from McDonalds) but from home black. Why? Well weirdly, when I read the theme this is the first thing that came into my head. I think because I was inspired by a picture of Chanel McDonald boxes:

I think that black adds a sense of elegance to the fast food, which usually is one of the least elegant foods we eat.
