Composite Critique

Trouble at Home

Jim Kazanjian is the artist that made this photo. In his life time, Kazanjian went to the Art Center Collage of Design and the Kansas City Art Institute. He never takes any of his own photos but combines up to as many as 50 images from the internet to create his artwork. Jim has worked professionally as a commercial artist for the past 18 years in game production and television. With the knowledge of Kazanjian's work, he had taken several pictures to make this one. Using the bottom of a type of tractor and using an old creepy looking house on top of it he also probably added the smoke in the background and the dirty landscape too. He could have also taken little details from other various photos to add into the detail of the house, such as the woman standing in the door/window. He must have made the whole picture in black and white too and changed the contrast to add  shadows. I think that the result is pleasing in a spooky, dark sort of way. Jim did a very good job on putting all of the images together to make it look real and that it could be an actual thing. I like how it also kind of looks like it was seen through a telescope or binoculars by the rounded part of the top corners.
