CPS Week 8-Character, Environment, and Events

In response to the theme of Character , Environment, and Events，I made a rough collage named 'My eyes were raped by advertisement！'
I want to explore how character be reacted and manipulated by the environment - how are we manipulated and shaped imperceptibly by 'the consumer society'. My inspiration comes from a joke when chatting with my friends to express my dissatisfaction with the advertising.But when I reflect on my daily behavior, I do feel the strength of semiotic value behind those advertisements. To some extent, they constitute our identity.
Jean Baudrillard made an in-depth explanation of the emergence and essence of this phenomenon in his book the consumer society: Modern consumer society commercializes all daily life and symbolizes all commodities, in order to immerse individuals in endless self consumption and false illusion of equality.
