This editorial work reimagines the phrase “Let them eat cake” by queen Marie Marie Antoinette, to show the difference between luxury and basic needs. The image of a cupcake on a slice of bread highlights the gap between privilege and necessity. It questions how society often ignores real struggles while focusing on appearances.
The soft pastel colors and elegant composition create a sense of beauty, which contrasts with the message about inequality.
This work encourages viewers to think about how people can overlook the needs of others while focusing on indulgence.
