These prints are part of my political response to the forever-spoken-about Brexit. I went with the theme of Art-détournement within confectionary packaging you’d find on products most people would associate coming from different countries around Europe. I took the most obvious packaging; Cheerios, Leibniz biscuits, Milka chocolate & ubiquitous Nesquik. I played around with the names of each product, trying to think of humorous puns.
I thought these designs were well thought-out at the time, as people would be eye-caught by the familiarity of the designs and the bold colours, then being drawn into a deeper political meaning. Many people can find reading about politics boring and rather cumbersome in the newspapers, so I figured I’d share my views in a colourful, attractive and eye-popping way.
