A coarse collection of connection forces
Twenty-four paper collages in gradiential sequence exploring the forces of connection and association inherent to abstract collage. These collages were made between 2024-2025. This collection served as an experiment in stepping back from the hyper-maximalism of the Recontextures exhibit that preceded it,
These collages are all 11” x 14” in size, made from individual pieces of paper cut by craft knife, and glued together using acid-free, archival rubber cement on museum-grade RagMat.
