Mykl - Material Wealth

in focusing my piece on the desire for gold, and what should translate to material measures of wealth in general, my first priority was to make my project resemble an advertisement. By using an ad-like format, i feel like the idea of the gold items in the image being things that people desire would come across clearly, based on how familiar most people are with the purpose and idea of advertisements. Also, because of the context, i feel that my piece at least suggests some conflict about this desire. Were it place in a magazine it would clearly read as a designers attempt to convince people to buy the items. However, because it was shown in an art class, i think the idea of it having a deeper meaning is almost inevitable.
