Description
"The Dick Project" emerged as a candid and expressive manifestation of my simmering frustrations with the advertising industry. This provocative piece takes the form of a bowl adorned with an array of penises, serving as a symbolic commentary on the competitive dynamics within the industry. The metaphorical representation of the male anatomy is a deliberate choice, aiming to highlight the pervasive atmosphere of one-upmanship that often characterizes the advertising world. In a field where success can be equated with the perceived size of one's accomplishments, the piece invites contemplation on the superficial nature of such competition. By employing a blend of humour and critique, "The Dick Project" encourages viewers to reflect on the absurdities of this competitive culture and prompts a reconsideration of values within the advertising realm.
