double diptych

This is made up of four monotype panels, two originals and two ghost prints. On the ghosts I've collaged images from photos taken by Mark Jury in Vietnam, and from newspaper photos of presidents Johnson and Nixon. I've portrayed the war under Johnson chaotic with slogans, the hub-bub of pro-war propaganda. Under Nixon is the silent war in Cambodia. Each panel was made to look like a flag, the four together forming another flag.

Nice work. I love how the images scatter the quad-division of the piece.
