Photo 1: Intercultural Communication (Daily Dozen, Apr 15, 2013)
This is a photograph showing communication by means of hand gestures between a minor and an adult or an Asian and a westerner. I was in a photocopying room when I noticed the way an Englishman was talking to an Asian out at the office. Looking at the resources around me, I thought to myself how better to represent this communication than 2 paper clips sitting on a stack of paper. The cultural imbalance can be seen by differences in physique, specifically height and structure of the clips, taking into account cultural norms, biasness and stereotypes of a specific cultural group.
Photo 2: Watchful Eyes of the Night (Daily Dozen, Apr 25, 2013)
“I present to you two spoons placed on a Reversi game board. Inverted tortoise shells or simply the eyes of an all too familiar reptile? There are no boundaries to human imagination.”
