Critiques of Consumer Culture

I have chosen the Dunk shoes as a representation of current advertising and consumer culture. I have created a series of posters that depict how people perceive the Ben & Jerry's Dunk Low shoes before their release, during their release, and after their release. 
Why Dunk? 
Dunk shoes have become increasingly prevalent in recent years and become the representation of trendy. Each time a new Dunk design is released, people are sure to buy them. Therefore, I believe that the Dunk series represents the shoe consumption culture. Additionally, I have a personal interest in collecting shoes and I admire the Ben and Jerry's Dunk Low design. Nevertheless, I feel that I, too, am caught up in this "must-buy" consumerist culture.
