The story tells of a factory where forks work at consuming food. The protagonist is a fork which was unlucky to break its teeth when it sunk them upon a small piece of rock on the conveyor belt.

In the complete story(shown in the animatic), the fork was then sent to the dentist and given replacement fake gold teeth, which made it feel superior to the rest of the forks. Upon return, the fork tried to show its prowess by consuming food vigorously, eventually becoming very fat. It laughed like a fully satisfied suited man with a huge belly. The story ends when the fork’s gold teeth drops upon the thunderous laughter, leaving the protagonist embarrassed.

This story aims to tell of how the environment and circumstances can shape and influence our behavior, sometimes without our conscious control. We are all misfits, at one time or another.

letterpress & digital posters

The idea of not helping the reader decide on hard-to-decide issues but instead play a mind game, is the objective of this poster series. It brings out private thoughts which constantly runs through our heads but which we may not translate into words or communicate it to others. The poster reads both ways – ‘I should not ____’ and ‘I should’.
