CITIZEN : Citizen

This American Comfort Quilt by Bradley Prince and Joel Yatscoff of CITIZEN : Citizen caught my eye in Graphic Design USA Magazine this month. They take objects and make social messages out of them. Their site has a lot of interesting pieces.

"This handmade art piece, a limited series of ten, includes 58 logos of mass-market retailers, fast food chains and other corporations that participate in the creation of contemporary North American identity and condition. It is the problematic balance between familiarity and alienation which this quilt seeks to examine."{images from CITIZEN : Citizen website}
