My first photo is a satirical piece about Donald Trump. I have chosen the fictional land of Mordor from Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings book series where Sauron is situated and stuck a photo of a ‘Vote Trump’ sign in front of it to make a satirical comparison that Sauron, a dark and terrible ruler who dominated Middle Earth and enslaved and murdered many people, to a businessman who once presented Celebrity Apprentice and is now running for President of the United States of America.
The next photo is a satirical piece which is an edit of the famous photo of the workmen having their lunch. I have included a fight between Godzilla and King Kong and photoshopped photos of Shia LaBeouf, Nicolas Cage, Paddy McGuinness and Boris Johnson. The photoshopping of the heads over the workmen is my signature banter with my friends and I have used Godzilla and King Kong to reference two of the greatest movie monsters in history fighting in a great city, I also thought it would be funny if it shows the workmen not caring whilst these monster gods fight it out below them as if they were accustomed to it.
The final one, I am not entirely sure what I was doing. At the time I had a mild (manic) obsession with Shia LaBeouf and liked to photoshop him into a lot of things including one of my profile pictures. No one noticed. I can’t explain any of this.
