BMA142 Digital Media, poster series, research 2, 22 April

series of film posters for the movie "Harmony".  Aliens have been on Earth for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years, openly, and have been part of every historical epoch.  It wasn't an invasion as much as an integration, like the absorption of neanderthal genes into homo sapiens DNA.  Has this symbiosis been helpful or harmful?

"They've been here all along" "We Are One"  "Harmony"
A series of posters with human art, history, fashion as worn by aliens.  An 18th century cameo with the silhouette of an alien or robot, a Greek vase with aliens in battle, a historical painting with the American Founding Fathers and representatives of the alien race. A fashion magazine cover with a human woman in a dress with a symbiotic alien sticking out of her stomach wearing a matching hat. Fashion spread with alien wearing sweater with picture of humans on it, like animal sweaters that are popular now, human heads mounted as trophies in rustic cabins.  What would it be like if Aliens treated us the way we treat pets, farm, and other animals?

Another thought based on a poster by Olly Moss for the play Harvey that I saw:  Elwood Dodd's brogue-clad footprints and Harvey's giant rabbit paw footprints walking through snow.
