When I was initially invited to participate in Heather Sparks “The Big Return,” as part of CAPITALISM IS OVER! If You Want It, my initial interpretation of the project was that it pertained to the excessive and unnecessary consumption that consumers obliviously participate in on a global scale. It struck me that I, and almost everyone I know, have been guilty of buying things we don’t really need at some point, and that this type of behaviour is exactly what keeps the mega corporations that benefit only the ultra-wealthy elite. “Miss Piggy Goes to Market” is a parody of our shopping habits and a reflection of the absurdity of society’s spending problem.
