Description
I usually have no idea where I'm going when I begin to create a photomontage. Hours after I begin, I find what I thought I might make bears no resemblance to my final result. Here I used part of a physical collage I'd made as my base and began adding other elements, resulting in this picture, which makes me think of all the Japanese people — most of them American citizens — who were forced into internment camps during World War II. May we never forget.
