Photomontage




The photomontage's intent was to combined elements of human anatomy with elements of design and other materials. I undertook to input a message against smoking in to my photomontage. I photoshopped a runway model and smoke images to encircle. The model looks sickly and pale and the smoke restrains her in space overcoming her figure and symbolic life. I next made an image of lungs with an exacto knife and card-stock paper. The final piece is in black and white, except for the lungs and lighted area of the cigarette in the model's mouth. This piece speaks against smoking, its harmful effects on health, and its un-glamorous quality. The black and white help to illustrate these ideas along with the images and the color serves to illustrate the focal points. This piece is scored 5D. The work demonstrates a message, innovative and original ideas, and a purpose. The work as well displays concepts of balance in positioning of the objects and color choices.
