How organic are your organics?
I am really not much of a conceptual illustrator. I was thinking about organic products and their proliferation on super market shelves. It seems strange to me that companies can produce organic products in abundance without charging an arm and a leg. The company I was thinking about doesn’t have much information online about the farms they use, although their products are certified organic. Which got me wondering if we shouldn’t be questioning the organic products we buy to see if they really match our understanding of ‘organic’ (which, like the concept of normal, is in a bit of a flux at the moment if you ask me). I’m sure there is a more interesting way to develop a picture around the idea, but since I’m a literal blockhead that’s all I managed to come up with. It would be nice to make something more if it though, it’s a message I would like to get across to people, personally, so I don’t mind investing extra time into seeing if there’s a more elegant yet effective way of doing it.
Or… I could simply write an article about it which would be much more to the point that any picture :s

Add some human organs around. I don’t know if it will look better, but it will certainly offer some insight into the idea.
