Perspective Collage
11x14 Bristol paper
Magazine and comics, colored markers, Sobo glue
At first, I didn’t have any set idea in mind for this project. In fact, I didn’t have any of my materials gathered, until my parents retuned from a trip and handed me a couple of magazines from Yellowstone. I managed to use those magazines and a batman comic i had laying around (it was a freebie i got from a store a couple years ago, don’t worry) and decided to do a sort of faux-nature theme. I felt like the walls being solid with pictures of the outside world was an ironic twist that referenced how animals are sometimes treated in zoos like SeaWorld. Alongside that, the bears being put next to each other with different species, and the different types of birds stacked up poke fun at how unethically diverse Zoo settings are. The far background being a completely different theming (a snowy, dusky area) shows how jarring it is to go from a jungle setting to an arctic setting in a Zoo. The motorcyclists and Hot Dog Lady ™️ represent the absurd activities that might take place in those locations. The woman with the camera is meant to represent the audience taking photos.
