I've always really loved Hannah Hoch's work, as I think she manages to strike an important balance between humour and seriousness with her absurd collages.
I also really like how she combines other components to ensure that her work is not solely portraiture, which is something I would like to explore throughout this project. I think her retro and yet still modern take on collage has ensured her images evoke a certain sense of nostalgia whilst still being fairly ambiguous.
In addition, her use of a selective colour palette helps to cool the whole piece and make it easier for the audience to connect to it.
