New Collage!

So I just finished up a new collage for my, Simulations series!...(see below)


The original version of this collage is roughly around 5 x 7 inches. I used my brother Max as the model who I photographed in my studio and the shots of all the rocks were taken separately at Vasquez Rocks, CA. It seems like the general reaction I have gotten from people who have seen this pieces is that it is, "disturbing", which I'm assuming that reaction is related to the visual of the rocks splitting from the male's chest. I will be displaying my original collages from the Simulations series for the Summer 2011, Art Center Grad show this August so I will continue to create more collage from now until then. I have about 5 collage that I will definitely display and I will strive to have 5 to 7 more by August.

Basically, July will be my month of hell...
