a UIImageView can only display one image at a time. you can add additional imageViews to your storyboard and add your images to those

You could also set the image to the background of the viewcontroller with the following line of code:

[self.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage: [UIImage imageNamed: @"imagename.png"]]];

Keep in mind this wond show in your storyboard!
