Juxtaposition In Dismaland
Visual Argument While looking at different pieces from the infamous graffiti artist Banksy’s new exhibit, “Dismaland” I noticed the image of Cinderella hanging out of her overturned carriage while a group of paparazzi continue to simply take photographs. In this piece Banksy utilizes juxtaposition, ethos and logos, and also iconic figures to convey his message of the problem with the media, and how in this day and age if we see someone’s life in disarray we are more likely to watch and do nothing than to help.
Juxtaposition is when one element is from one time period and another element is from another, in his image from “Dismaland” Banksy uses this technique to strengthen his argument that the media focuses on making a tragedy into a story
