Third Year: Art, destruction, memories and ephemera

I took part in a collaborative project with other students called Tearing up the Past and this involved taking old coloured images primarily of religious artworks from art magazines and altering them to create a new image.  I experimented with quick methods to destroy and alter the images, for example, folding and cutting rectangles out.  I ripped and rearranged the portrait to create a new image.  I cut the image into slices and staggered these, creating a glitch-like image.  This was a quick and experimental project, but I enjoyed being freely destructive to create new compositions.
