the Physician's Pill Manuel

Date

Spring 2024

Materials

Sugar, Gelatin Capsules, Repurposed Book

Sec 1. Candyland: overprescription, inappropriate prescription, and kickbacks

Sec 2. Why is the FDA aproved : glows in the dark, and sprinkles were originally marketed towards children

Sec 3. Sunshine and Rainbows: false promises yet painfully true side-effects


Sugar is very appealing just like the idea of having a more functional body. But when sugar adds up in mass quantities over time it is very harmful to the body, just like real painkillers damage the organs. There is some kind of blurring between the line of antidote and poison that happens when all the pretty pills add up. For this reason it was important that not only I choose sprinkles with visual symbolism reminiscent of big Pharma, but also that they give an appealing femme fatale kind of vibe.
