This is my physical image created by taking a photograph of the horses behind the fencing. This photographer that influenced me to create this image was John Baldessari, specifically his picture: "Tiger with three trainers". The picture by John highlighted the helplessness of the tiger being forced to jump through a flaming hoop. This helplessness is also emphasised in this photograph that I have created since the black and while, low saturated effect of the photograph brings out an unsettling feeling to the viewer. The fencing of the original photograph was stuck over with the paper which even further highlighted the helplessness of the horses. However the only difference between "Tiger with three trainers" and my photograph is that the tiger is coloured by stuck on paper while the horses in my image are not.

 Both of these photographs, created by Hannah Hoch, looks to have been created with physically manipulated items like paper which was probably traded and scratched. These photos were aleo transformed and altered to achieve its desired results such as the disproportionate body parts.



This artwork by John Baldessari manipulates images with filling subjects with colour to bring about different connotations and meanings to the photographs.

Physical Images Definition

Gilliam's animations link with Hanna Hoch's composites since both images and animation involve the manipulation of physical items to create something. For example, both Hanna and Gilliam's work both involve the use of newspaper that was cut to create their final pieces.

Hoch and Gilliam are a part of the Dada art movement. Dada or Dadaism was an art movement of the European avant-garde in the early 20th century, with early centers in Zürich, Switzerland at the Cabaret Voltaire and in New York.
