Rhed Fawell
Edinburgh, Scotland

My collages explore the deconstruction and reconstruction of images. The process allows me to play conceptually with a theme or thought. By deconstructing the original reality of an image, I can begin to let it tell a different story. Once I find my visual starting point, I will start a process of deconstruction/reconstruction, combining the use of ripping, cutting, layering, juxtaposition and, at times, the labourious task of stitching.

COLLAGE ON VIEW

Born Yesterday

G.B. Jones & Paul P. at Participant Inc. in New York City through 17 December 2017. Over the past fifteen years, the two artists have collaborated intermittently, primarily making collages from their combined image banks. This exhibition collects these collages with a selection of new drawings by Jones alongside works made over the past decade. To this, P. has added works in watercolour and design that are emblematic of Jones. MORE

COLLAGE ON VIEW

Obsessive Collage

Matthew Cusick, Tom Nakashima, Diane Samuels at The Eleanor D. Wilson Museum at Hollins University in Roanoke, Virginia through 21 January 2018. These three artists have used collage to visually portray a persistent idea, image, or desire; although their approach is unique, each uses bits and pieces of disparate paper elements to create a new whole based on visual memories.

COLLAGE BOOKS

Shattered Flow

by Markus Schwander with texts by Annemarie Blucher & Franzika Glozer. Published by Edition Fink, Zurich, Switzerland, 2017. Schwander deals with aesthetic questions of the landscape by exploring different landslides in Canada and Switzerland. The results of his investigations are collages which do not aim to represent the actual appearance of the landslides, but are attempts to make movement imaginable. MORE
