Here are a few photographs from Peter Kennard's series entitled "Decoration" - this is a photomontage comprizing photographs and paintings exposing the reality of the Iraq war
The series depicts the fallen soldiers with their broken medals intended to show the human cost and abuse of rights entailed in the earning of these medals. This is quite a controversial issue but it is a very dramatic way of putting across the viewpoints of both sides. Neither side has been glorified
This series has inspired me to contemplate how I may put across the idea of two images that merge into one to create a new meaning
