Jan/Feb/March/April Collages - Part 1

Slightly late with posting up the images of this terms' collages -

I found that throughout the term, the collages became more decorative - causing them to become less interesting to view. I needed to bring back that kick of disturbance to the image, so towards the end of March/April I focused more upon 'obliterating' sections of images. I've become interested in the concept of the ideal image creating a growing/contagious effect; the idea of one image influencing many viewers that what they see is essential to function within popular culture perhaps. hmm.

The work is also a vehicle to explore authenticity - not just the reality of the images we view, but of the work belonging to the originator (fashion industry), or myself as the one who selected and manipulated the image. Digitalising the work can only be seen as another action of authenticating the work as my own to some extent.
