About the Book
A monograph of digital art montage by Catherine McIntyre.
Montage is naturally allusive. The subject of an image is not just the things that are in it. The visual content of a picture - the nude, the setting, the pattern, the colour - is just the beginning. It is the bones of the piece, supporting the less literal, emotional level of the work. By association with each other, and of themselves, elements of a picture can be symbolic or representative of things above and beyond themselves.
The images in this book are all lies, and absolutely the truth.
