Happy Market
What are small things that make you happy?
We’re always running, running, and running. Our minds are full of next steps, plans, worries. Although it is good to have a plan and be diligent, we can get consumed by all these worries about the future and forget to enjoy what is infront of us. Forgetting ti awknowledge the happiness in our lives right now can cause us to feel overwhelmed and anxious.
I asked my friends and peers this simple yet thought-provoking question. Even by asking this question, it allows people to stop and think for a moment on the small things in their lives that make them happy.
In a market, you have to slow down to look around. With this similar idea, I made the interview zine market themed so that people are slowing down for a moment to look around and appreciate these small things in life that brings them joy even in the midst of busyness and struggles. The answers of the interview are on the price tag and I created shapes that depict the essence of the answers.
The cover is made out of acrylic plate to resemble to supermarket basket and the pages are printed on photo paper, which has this shiny texture to stay consistent with the materiality of the supermarket basket.
