I looke at Hannah Hoch a german artist. Höch was a pioneer of the artform that became known as photomontage.Many of her pieces point out the faults of beauty culture, comparing reality to depictions of the 'neue frau' in magazines. Her works from 1926 to 1935 often depicted same sex couples, and women were once again a central theme in her work from 1963 to 1973. Höch also made strong statements on racial discrimination. Her ideas complemented mine and I felt I could take the photomontage process and began to narrow down the political statement I was trying to convey.
