After looking into other art history and doing an in-depth study on the 'Guerrilla Girls', I felt I should focus on my other main inspiration as well; Barbara Kruger - her black and white images with thought-provoking red statements are some of the most iconic pieces in modern art. Therefore, similarly to my adaption of Andy Warhol's piece and Edvard Munch's, I decided to modernise their approach to fit with my own personal experiences. Here I used the same layout as Barbara Kruger and with some of the same slogans however I chose an image out of The Sun as the main focus. This was to show how, although I don't agree with a newspaper so openly showing a naked woman, I also don't harness any disrespect for the models and so don't feel they should be stereotyped as they often are.
