Object of Desire

As part of a photo brief, we have been asked to create one image to which we personally feel translates the 'Object of Desire' whether it be through the use of people, places, products or objects.

When looking into possible ideas to what type of image I would like to create for this brief, I was immediately struck by this particular image.


The image shows a Louis Vuitton bag having being imprinted onto a layer of flour. The way in which the designer logo is imprinted onto something so basic such as flour connotates the idea of giving an expensive item a cheap edge. The way in which the logo sits on the flour adds an almost 3D effect which inevitably makes the imprint look like an actual bag. The cracks within the flour surrounding the bag also present the idea that however perfect the designer world may present itself to be, it is perhaps not so perfect after all. I hope to take some inspiration from this image and inject my own ideas into it and see what outcome I can achieve.
