Hannah Höch often demonstrated how the photomontage technique of reassembling cut out parts to create composite images could be employed to communicate her views on political, social and imaginative concerns. By composing images of differing scales and contexts, Höch altered pictorial conventions, challenged rules of representation. In her piece 'Grotesque', Höch utilised images of femininity from the media, such as the legs and the face, and used the characteristics of photomontage to challenge conventionalised representations of women and to undermine the then current fascination in the German press with the image of the 'new woman' - independent, employed and unorthodox. hope that helps.
