JANUARY 2010
I WAS COMMISSIONED BY GDI IMPULS TO CREATE A SERIES ILLUSTRATING FIVE ACTIONS OR STATES WHICH ONE MAY WISH TO UNDO: A SHOOTING, BEING HUNGOVER, A BROKEN HEART, AN ARGUMENT, AND AN EXPLOSION. THROUGH WORKING ON A COMPUTER, PUSHING THE CTRL Z BUTTONS, WE'VE BECOME USED TO HAVING THE ABILITY TO UNDO THINGS, AND ALTHOUGH THIS IDEA'S STARTING TO SPREAD INTO REAL LIFE MORE AND MORE, IT CAN STILL PROVE DIFFICULT IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS. ALL PROPS WERE MADE IN CARDBOARD.

THE DRY PLANTS AND THEIR CARDBOARD ACCESSORIES
I CAME ACROSS THESE DRY PLANTS LOOKING LIKE BODY PARTS ON THE STREETS OF SÃO PAULO. WHAT BETTER THAN TO EQUIP THEM WITH LUXURY ACCESSORIES MADE OUT OF THEIR FAMILY MEMBER CARDBOARD?

FOR THE LAUNCH OF CREATIVE SUITE 4, ADOBE BOUGHT LITTLE SNOUT OF MY FLOWER MONSTERS. THEY WERE LOOKING FOR CREATIVE EXAMPLES OF HOW PHOTOSHOP CAN BE USED IN SUBTLE WAYS, AND MY FLOWER MONSTERS FITTED THE BILL PERFECTLY AS THEY'RE ENTIRELY BUILT BY HAND AND HAVE ONLY RECEIVED MINOR RETOUCH, SUCH AS COLOR ADJUSTMENT.
