Collage, mélange, pegado, kollaasi


“an artistic composition made of various materials (as paper, cloth, or wood) glued on a surface” Miriam Webster

Personally this definition of collage isn’t inclusive of the endless combining possibilities of a collage. A collage not only varies in materials but juxtaposes concepts, contrasts shapes, creates three dimensionality from two dimensional images… well I could go on and on but you get the picture



Each of the above images uses one if not numerous techniques of collage, however, despite their extreme variety they all find unity in an element of design that ultimately results in what I find to be extremely effective and appealing artworks.


lets get collaging (that's right collage is now a verb)•
