Project description

The  inspiration of this project came from the anxious feeling I had since many relatives passed away because of Type II Diabetes. My research began with Diabetes to Diabetes prevention, I found the Type II Diabtes is partly genetic (around 15%) but there are still approximately 80% chance to reverse or delay it from happening by changing lifestyle (diet, exercise, pressure... etc.) in early age and don't be too anxious. Therefore, I have tried to eat heatheir, but giving up junk food made me feel like giving up happiness in life. I am more stressed.

 

I liken the body function (Organic lesion), emotion (somatization) and behavior (self-dicipline) disorder in diabetes to mechanical failure. Subsequently, the Glitch Art was used to show the process of anxiety of organic diseases by the degree of bread mildew. Out of my deep understanding of the lack of self-discipline in diet, I felt the negative impact of dietary changes on mood, so I used the form  of "blind box" to bring surprise to people to reduce the psychological pressure I had.

I have tried many ways to express the process from somatization to organic lesion. To simulate the relationship between body changes an emotions. Each patten could represent the the anxiety stage.

Shokugan design

Shokugan originally came from Japan. When it first entered Mainland China, it appeared in the fast food industry like KFC/McDonald's. They always had those little toys with kid's meal. Nowadays, many Shokugan collectors share their collections online, which has caused great repercussions. Therefore, I am trying to use Shokugan with mystery box combining with my project in order to provide surprises.
