This is a picture of a man making an "L" on his forehead. This gesture is known as calling someone a loser. Hence the L for loser. This is used to make someone else feel bad about them selves.

This is a unique and exquisite collage series based on the popular superheroes including Superman, Batman, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and more. As we can see from the images, each collage features a superhero themed portrait along with a complicated background formed by comic book pages in the same theme.

Photomontage

   A photomontage is more or less taking multiple pictures to either create a set of pictures that run together or taking them and making one much larger photo. Typically we overlay these photos or use them as basic building blocks for the larger picture. These pictures can be made to be meaningful or even just be made to be solely entertaining.

Here we see a comedic photomontage of Leonardo DiCaprio crying. The reason being it is made up of pictures of other people winning Oscars. When we look at these types of photomontages, we notice that the larger the number of pictures, the more clear the photo. Also, depending on the quality of the photos, we can zoom in and see the smaller pictures.

This photo, as you can see, has a woman cut out and pasted in to represent the bar of a lamp. This piece is called Articulos elrctricos para el hogar by Grete Stern. This an obvious photomontage. Many photomontages are illusions and/or abstract, showing things that do not actually exist, i.e. a real woman as a lamp pole.

(This link contains more photomontages)

This photo is of two children playing with chalk, however, it seems that the children are huge because they, along with their artwork, have been pasted into an overhead view of a street. This, just as Grete Stern's work above, is a blatant representation of a photomontage because of the overlaying images.

 Triangulation helps to give images more of a bold layout and look, drawing more emphasis to the artwork.

Fantastic Five- Pictograms

A pictogram, also called a pictogramme, or pictograph, is an ideogram that conveys its meaning through its pictorial resemblance to a physical object. Pictographs are often used in writing and graphic systems in which the characters are to a considerable extent pictorial in appearance.





This pictogram displays the safety rules and regulations for construction workers through pictures. Each image within the image is an example of a proper way to be equipped on the job. This pictogram is a good example because if put into writing, it would be a much longer process to read and comprehend.

Here we have a diagram of several simple procedures that one might endure when going for a simple checkup at the doctors office. Each image gives its viewer a description of what they are looking at.
