Medical-looking things give me the creeps; I thought these chalky pills looked a little more chipper arranged into a perky square pattern, kind of like if you took rusty nails and made them into a sculpture of kittens in a basket.
-I think the fleshy color makes the pills look just like they taste- dry, chalky, and unsettling.
-The uniformity I think also gives them an ominous feel; identical objects feel so sterile, like gray buildings on a dark city block.
-The markings on them are different depending on which side the pills are sitting on, so half of them show letters and half of them show numbers.
-I like the way the shadows overlap each other, creating 3 or 4 Shadow Pills per each Actual Pill.
-They look like that Traffic Jam game that they make you play in elementary school to develop your logical thinking skills- they each look like they're trying to scoot their way out of the little square. I think this adds to their weird quality of being both completely foreboding and adorable at the same time.
Just a few observations, see you all in class tomorrow!
