In class we were given a magazine which we had to pick images out and create a photo collage. The process wasn't to be thought about too much we were just suppose to be spontaneous w and adventuress with what we create.
I was given a fashion magazine that I went through and picked out images that I wanted to work with. |
I liked the idea of mixing words and images together so I cut several pieces from the magazines. I also added pieces that gave the piece some texture and definition. Once I was happy with what I had I then arranged my photos and began to stick them down.
When we all completed the task, we all gathered to look at each others work and see what others had decided to collage together.
As a class we all critiqued each others work and discussed what we liked about the collages we had created. Overall photomontage was fun experiment. I like the idea of just creating something and putting pieces together spontaneously rather exciting. The idea of using text, images or a texture from a magazine page to then use it in a whole new way and create a new image is an interesting process. |
