My project consists of a large multi-media collage. The collage may visually help viewers to experience,
in a way, the dramatic Soviet-led invasion of my country Czechoslovakia on 21 August 1968.
For my art piece, I used a wood panel 30"x40" painted with black acrylic colour. My collage's dense composition is created with a countless supply of historical documentary reproductions of film photographs, original maps and various 
newspapers from 1968. To add some details I applied some of my digital images. 
The focal point of the collage became a nested little box shelf full of 3D objects. 
Each object, each piece of material I chose represents dark events of the first days of the occupation in Czechoslovakia.
