Experimental Photography

How can photographic images, textures, text, objects, graphics, world balloons etc come together in the collage and design process to create expressive pieces? How do forms like Tarot Cards, Comics, Game Boards, and Collages communicate? Look through these examples and see what ideas spring up for you. How can you use various elements together in order to express your own perspective, observations, stories, concerns, or identity? These are just examples to help inspire. Your work will follow your own aesthetic choices and ideas.

The top 2 are the most abstract; made with student work and the Warhol effect.
