Collage assignment for uni based on the concept of the war between text and image. The originals were photocopied into monochrome and blown up to A1 posters for a class exhibition. I decided to ignore the brief and focus on the emotional themes during WWII; looking at relationships damaged by the brutality of war. Using war poems and 1940s inspired typography alongside old soldier portraiture and other photography I tried to capture the bittersweet issues associated with the era.
