Some photomonteur works by Doug Spowart
This work deals with how history and public opinion can be manipulated and swayed for political and commercial gain by any person or agency of power. All images in this project are natural Australian landscapes that we've become so familiar with that they are boring. The project suggests that terra forming could revitalise these places to make them more appealing to visitors and tourists. Originally this work was presented in the form of an artists' book.
