Graphic Reflections

This is one of my earliest graphics, created way back in year 2000. While I’m not sure if I completely agree with it, thought I’d put it up nevertheless because the design treatment is interesting It is about some “must have’s” to climb up in society!

This graphic tries to portray man’s increasing dependence on machines. One of the characteristics of progress or advancement as we know it is increasing involvement of machines in our day-to-day activities. (This was one of my earliest graphics, made almost 8 years ago. It does look dated and gives an indication of how much machines have evolved in just a few years.)

The wrist watch has, over the years, transcended it’s original role of telling time to become one of the most popular status symbols. It goes with you wherever you go, it’s easy to flash and be noticed by others, it’s a sign of who you are; the more exquisite or valuable the watch, the more it ‘talks’ about you. However, it is a matter of debate as to what is more valuable: the watch itself or time.
