Abstract

The prints in my thesis titled, Image: It Means Nothing It Means Everything, are a direct response to American pop-culture's addiction to image and trend. A wonderful melting pot of style takes place between Hollywood regulars and Small Town hipsters, creating juxtapositions of lifestyles. My translation of these contrasts of social scenes through pop iconography questions the significance of image when reduced to icons within a consumer society. My work aims to elicit sensations of disgust, desire, greed, beauty and obsession by incorporating these images and icons that bombard us each day.
