British artist Jonathan Yeo has been making a statement about the United States culture for a few years now. You can see the whole series of 'Porn in the USA' courtesy of LAZ Gallery @ 320 North Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills. Show runs through August 8th, 2010.
Yeo masters the art of subtlety of photo collage and incorporates erotic imagery to create what looks like seemingly harmless portraits. From your attention craving politicians to socialites to the every day, Yeo has caused quite a stir with his subject matter. He has also given this series a nice twist with his foliage collection done with the same erotic composition. Look closely. You may or may not like what you see. via: Jonathan Yeo
