methods of montage
In the 1920s Sergei Eisenstein created the concept of five methods of montage:
Metric montage: cutting based purely on the length of shot relative to one another abbreviating the time the audience has to absorb the information in each shot increasing the tension resulting from the scene.
Rhythmic: based on time and tempo, continuity from the visual pattern within the shots.This montage is considered potential for scenes of conflict from the continuity.
Tonal: doesn't concert length but instead the lighting, shadows and shapes in the frame, made to establish the emotional character of a scene.
Overtonal: combines metric, rhythmic and tonal montage - essentially how whole sequences play against each other.mixes pace, ideas, and emotions to induce the desired effect from the audience.
Intellectual or ideological montage: intellectual montage sought to express abstract ideas by creating relationships between opposing visual intellectual concepts.

WHAT REFUGEES CARRY WITH THEM
His diptychs include an image of a refugee and next to it their most valuable belongings. The belonging relating to them is often smaller to suggest that it is a part of them. without the explanation at the bottom the images could come across differently and may portray a different idea.
Jason fulford and tamara shopsin - these colours are bananas
The images often include vibrant childish and primary colours, sometimes relating to the colour in the opposing image. Both images correlate by similar shapes and patterns.

Luke Fowler uses a two frame film, where the images are printed in the sequence taken so there is no real relationship between the images other than they where taken seconds or possibly weeks apart. There is an element of chance in his photographs.
