Mumbai-based artist Bandana Jain tries to capture the excesses of consumerism in her series of cardboard figures, titled An Ode To Consumerism

Bandana Jain, is a multi-media artist who also works with metal and wood, but her fascination with corrugated cardboard has culminated in her work titled An Ode to Consumerism. A product of the J J School of Art, and as someone who promotes sustainable living, the artist has created figures of a man and a woman walking away with big boxes, all made of corrugated cardboard. But the piece we found the most fascinating is of an overweight man standing with a cardboard box painted with many colours—an indication of the excess found in today’s world and our never-ending greed for it.
