Many of the mini malls in Memphis have a uniform look. Each business has the same red for lettered signs, the same brick color and similar foliage. Anyway this piece is a response to the mini malls. I visited several of them while shopping for necessities.

Reminds me of a Christmas wreath. I can also look at the red circle as the mall, trapping consumers within (the bonds of debt?)
ReplyDeleteThat makes me think of the recent movie "What Would Jesus Buy?" A preacher and chorus go to malls and encourage people to stop spending themselves into debt.
