For my current Visual Studies brief we have to create works showing juxtapositions in the image, word and context of the work as a whole,
The way I created these images was to take the context (time) and manipulate the words and images around that, to a person in say.. for example the 1940’s these advertisements would seem mind-blowing, amazing products with eerily strange futuristic designs, to us they are quite mundane objects, however, the text and layout of the images contradict today’s designs, and at a glance do not seem as if they would be advertising products in the year 2011.
As my project progresses, I plan to create more of these images, continuing on the ideas of playing with the context of time, and how images and words were presented in that era of time
