The collages I have created demonstrate my ability to remix and mashup mainstream culture, with found imagery from popular magazines and photocopied imagery from both through the hip hop culture of the 80s and punk culture of the 70s. This use of detournement proposes a surreal and subversive message demonstrating my understanding of lo-fi aesthetics, as well as remixing imagery to create a new life and meaning. All these processes I have used display my focus on lo-fi visuals through a DIY ethos, using predominately found materials I wanted to established a self made publication, avoiding manipulation within digital softwares.
