Week 8 - David Hockney Research



    David Hockney likes doing collages. There are lots of different things happening. He has got a whole lot of many different photos. Some which are duplicated. David Hockney uses different shapes and angles. I see square and rectangle for a start. He does not use a lot of straight lines because they are not even.



He has taken a lot of photos of different parts of the body. Specially the head and shoulders. He made a collage of the photos. I see all oblongs. All of his photos are overlapped. He has got one photo in the background and he has pasted different photos on the big one.
