Same Concept, New Approch

My tutor advised me to take another look at the words URBAN and JUNGLE, so I did and came up with 'Survival of the Fittest'. I started to look at the state of the ecomony and the people who are suffering in this environment. The small corner shops and family owned businesses are like the animals who are becoming extint in the jungle while the huge retail stores are suriving in this economic crash. I hope to convey this by maybe taking a look at the family owned shops and businesses that are becoming extinct in the city and comparing them to the big stores. That way it conveys the concept of Survival of the Fittest. My jungle has now become a metaphor for the recession.
To convey this concept I wish to create 3D models of buildings using a variety of materials including wire, wool, felt, leaves, ribbon, net, straws and pieces of knitting.
