“I like the limitations of collage…using found imagery and a pair of scissors, there are no Photoshop options to resize, adjust colors or undo.”
“I suppose I’m fairly anti technology although I now promote my art on websites like this, own an iPhone and use Facebook…I wish I had been born 100 years ago.”
Webb arrived 2nd at the Saatchi Online showdown collage competition

These are some great handmade mixed media collages by British artist Joe Webb. His collage work uses the basic rule of sourcing just two or three images. Then Webb presents them as a reinvented single image with the objective of communicating a new message or idea. He started making these simple handmade collages as a sort of luddite reaction to working on computers for years.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
