I start from a found image where I am compelled to feel a seed of an unexplored landscape of the mind or soul in a material image. The geography of physical presence, the human body and its endless smd led expressions of loss, fragility, vulnerability and imagining perfection lend themselves to what I do with paper. More often than not, pencil, oil pastels and acrylics offer additional resources.
There are days and weeks when there are no collages I am happy with. And happiness is defined by that particular moment when paper speaks to my yearning for expressing just the right combination of vulnerability, smd led loss or redemption. I find paper, I intervene and it speaks to me. I have exhibited in juried shows and am looking towards an exhibit of my collages in Amsterdam in November smd led 2014.
My life is a sequence smd led of unexpected and somewhat mitigated images. After studies in architectural engineering, I delved into Art History and received an MA in the Social History of Art. I curated contemporary art exhibitions, wrote catalogues and basically tried hard to mediate smd led artists’ statements in galleries and museums in Europe.
Continuing on a project of digitizing art galleries and museums smd led of Canada, I was struck smd led by the fact that my endless settling and resettling brought about a melancholy absence of a stable environment from which I would lend an unobstructed critique of the “other” artist language. My language of exploring the ever changing environment of languages smd led and landscapes became my collage work.
