I produced a series of photomontages which were inspired by the works of dada artists like John Heartfield and Max Ernst. The theme throughout the series highlights strange and surreal garden scenes and landscapes. I created these by arranging and pasting found images from rare old books and new magazines. The series is created to look as if each montage was captured in a fictional garden estate called ‘Crazy world’.
