Experimenting with collage and image editing using news stories about disasters and old war comics.
I've always found pictures like this strange - known war criminals and corrupt leaders being treated like old buddies.
I searched through old wartime comics to find pertinent and interesting images, cut them out, and enlarged them. This is a small selection of some of the captions and images I used.
Collage: victims of the 2011 tsunami in Japan, with a photo of the tsunami behind.
Statistics of the 2011 Japan tsunami, replacing the image of a tsunami survivor (used below).
Edit: while many buildings were left derelict after the tsunami, a large portion of the Sony factory remained standing. The three people in this picture were edited to look like three now defunct music products.
Collage: a soldier rescuing tsunami survivors, against a backdrop of a nuclear test cloud.
Edit: an old newspaper front page, with words of conflict, destruction and tragedy highlighted.
