Zoey Says...

Right, 
as the previous images really didn't work in the context that we required for the exhibition I've had another look around. As mentioned earlier, we all wanted to include some of David LaChapelle's work. I've found this ad campaign:



 It is aimed to encourage every eligible 18-year-old in America to register and vote in the presidential primaries and 2008 presidential election (1/4 of american are not register on voting lists). Stars are here attached, muzzled, gagged etc...
These images are really shocking and strongly express that by not voting and keeping silent will make yourself suffer by not having your say. They are typically controversial as you would expect from David LaChapelle. However they do not contain his usual sexual elements.


I really think it belongs in our exhibition, what do you guys think? Which one do you prefer?
