New photomontages for 0ninehundred show

My Art collective the 0ninehundred are hosting our second show as a collective in the Playhouse bar, Norwich which lays just across the bridge from NUCA. We left the theme for this show pretty open allowing each of us to display what we wanted to.
I opted to create new work for the show in the form of photomontage.
Photomontage is a medium I feel comfortable working within, I can just lay out my materials put on some music and let the images come together as I go.
For this exhibtion I'm hanging 5 new peices of work, 4 photomontages and one black and white print.

I aimed to convey an element of irony and sarcasum, attempting to adress the constant need for consumerism within modern day western society.

A series of 8 hand numbered prints are available of the two above images and can be purchased this thursday ( the 9th) at the event for £5 any remaining prints will be on sale after the event on my big cartel.
