Collage as “Environment” and Ideas
July 5th, 2008
To make this photo, I took two collages and set them at 90 degree angles, one lying flat on the floor, the other propped on the wall, and I photographed them from the center. The result is the dimensional blending of the two.
The wonderful thing for artists living today is that modern technology offers up so many new avenues for getting ideas. I take things like this and paint them. I still pursue my thought in direct and traditional tools, but I use the new gadgets to produce ideas.
When I look at something like this, it's like trying to enter a dream. This is my way of looking for the doorway that opens onto thought.
