The current generation that is growing up can be found in school textbooks or lecture halls is also called Generation (Gen Z). The generation is defined as those born between 1995 and 2010. They are characterized by their minimal 8 hours of screen time a day and their infamous 8 seconds of attention span. It is the first generation to have grown up in the internet era and have a 'digital' footprint as long as they can remember. Gen Z has thus created a digital legacy as a generation. The generations that preceded all have cultural physical characteristics that have been translated to a non-digital world and still hold onto human society. Technological developments that have taken place over the past ten years have created a gap at Gen Z and there is only a digital legacy. As a maker, I have converted this into a physical legacy. Welcome to supermarket Legacy is a physical legacy for my Gen Z generation in the shapes and contemporary language of a supermarket.
