Appropriation (art)

The rationale of the fourth assignment is that "Appropriation (art) is an act of borrowing pre‐existing images from popular culture, advertising, mass media, social media, other artists and artworks, and contextualized new meaning to the new works of art. Often, the act of appropriation is intentional, may or may not attempt permission to their appropriated materials."

We are required to produce ONE appropriated picture to express:
Topic of any burning issue (social, cultural, political or economical, local or global)
and apply various technique of digital photomontage (via Adobe Photoshop) to assemble the pictures (minimum 3 pictures)

Here's my work:
