This project explores the trends in cultural preferences and the differences in the tastes of children (and their parents) from diverse cultures, ethnic groups as well as gender socialization and identity. The work also raises other issues, such as the relationship between gender and consumerism, urbanization, the globalization of consumerism and the new capitalism. The Pink and Blue Projects were initiated by my five-year-old daughter, who loves the color pink so much that she wanted to wear only pink clothes and play with only pink toys and objects.

I discovered that my daughter’s case was not unusual. In the United States, South Korea and elsewhere, most young girls love pink clothing, accessories and toys.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of one of the most famous years of the 20th century.

It is said that the events of that year shook the world and shaped an entire generation. As a political and cultural revolution took place, people across the world spoke out against war, capitalism, racism, misogyny and entire governments. These people came from a variety of cultures, races and backgrounds, but one thing most of them had in common was their youth. Hoping to do away with the authoritarian, traditional societal mores of their parents’ generation, they united. Mass media meant that for the first time, this wide-ranging rebellion was broadcast for all to see. As one of the chants went that year: ‘The whole world is watching’. So many uprisings and notable events took place in 1968 (there are a lot i'm not mentioning here - look them up!)

I grew up in a house with white walls, white ceilings, white carpets, & white furniture. I never had any personal appreciation or pride in my home until I moved out on my own and now I find people's apartments/houses fascinating and a great reflection of their own personal style, taste, and fashion sense. My parents were very plain to be truthful so it seems to make some sense to me at least.
