Joiners Definitions

Joiners - In the early 1980s, Hockney began to produce photocollages, which he called "joiners," first of Polaroid prints and later of 35mm, commercially processed color prints. 


  This is an image of a crowded town which has been assembled by someone. They have misplaced some parts of the picture, turned pieces around to create different angles. We as human beings can work out what is happening within the picture despite the picture being aligned and set out how we imagine it in our heads. This is why I find the topic joiners interesting.
