Physical Images Definition


PHYSICAL IMAGES

Photo Manipulation - involves transforming or altering a photograph using various methods and techniques to achieve desired results. 


How does Gilliam's animations link to Hannah Hoch's photo-composites? 

Gilliam and Hoch's work are linked as they both hand manipulate the photos by putting different images together. Neither of them always use their own images, sometimes they get the photos from different sources. Gilliam's is more for comedy purposes whereas Hoch does it for art purposes and to convert a meaning sometimes political. 

How is meaning changed through creating photo-composites? 

The meaning is changed as the different parts of the photo are taken out of their original context and put somewhere completely new that doesn't necessarily relate. For example the composite photo of the old lady on the motorbike which is her been taken out of her original context and put somewhere comical.
