Untitled (Camouflage) 2009

collage on paper bag

The images used are from the Imperial War Museum. I gathered various clippings from 
World War I and US Military magazines. 
My goal in this piece was to display a repetitive nature in costumes.
In this series I will relate people in different institutions to their clothing.
 This piece definitely strives to prevail a sense of place, or more the loyalty to a location by illustrating the importance of the uniform and how it functions to visibly group certain people with a common purpose.

The monument shown here is an icon that served for worship behavior on Remembrance Day. Photography was from the ceremony that was shared on November 11th, 1918, a day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and of civilians in times of war.
