chanel as rubbish

[Peter Blake]

not that I've got anything against the brand. just perhaps social comment then. Japan is so full of people carrying these things, that the implied status soon loses its lustre. only one thing for it - off to the dump with you.

the location in the shot is a communal waste dumping point, the nature and layout of which, is homogenously duplicated throughout Japan.

Nicely done Peter. I guess without the back-story though it would be difficult to interpret unless one was familiar wit Japan. As a shot for the local market though I think it works very well.

it was a commissioned shot.
