Eating and Sleeping: Graphic Design as Positive Persuasion
-Hannah Volfson
Recently the New York Times quoted Danny Meyer, the restaurateur, praising Mrs. Obama for speaking “in real human terms about what kind of choices real human beings can make in terms of their own lives.” Eating and Sleeping is the graphic design equivalent. The work demonstrates a belief that by taking care of ourselves, by prioritizing our health and well being, we better our own lives, our communal surroundings, and the environment.
The work takes on our unhealthy lifestyles in a variety of mediums from informational poster design, to board games, to intimate installations, to online concepts. From the hand-made to the computer-based, to the interaction of both, we see that this message can be portrayed in any medium, to any audience, be it a student or a stranger on the street. Its strength is in the sum of the work as it approaches different means of involving the audience and raising awareness of the importance of one’s own health and our communal surroundings.
