Free comes with a high price
2024
The transparent series Cheap has a high price inscribes itself in an economy of attention with intensive colors and large headings. The banners intend to be quickly consumed in passing. Superficial phrases that reveal little about the content addressed are used. This common method used by tabloid publishers to trigger emotions with images and text is used here and intended to use media-critical headlines and texts to criticize outrage on the part of the population at the broad approval and acceptance of the reporting in those daily newspapers.
