Final Project - Old King Hamlet Ghost Collage


A note from the artist:

"I used a unique collection of pictures to enforce that the viewer of this art work has to interpret its meaning. The viewer may find it easier once it has read this description. I used many different images to fill in the space that represents intense emotion. The empty space is used to show the confusion and  curiosity of the characters. Each character is very focused and intrigued by the ghost of Hamlet's father which is what is giving them scattered emotions."

  1. Interesting juxtapositions of incomplete text, headlines, images in a variety of media and the background space - it really DOES beckon interpretation, which is exactly what Shakespeare does, too, right? Well done!

  3. What a great idea! It's clear that a lot of thought went behind each of your choices, here, for what elements to emphasize and what to include. This play really does seem like a collage, in a way - so many different viewpoints and motives. You really show that in your choice of project.
