This collage (and the series it is a part of) utilizes the dross of the past 15 years as a photographer who has held onto all their photos including the not so good ones. Instead of letting them rot in a box I wanted to give them new life in an imaginary landscape. the photographs that didnt stand on their own got cut to bits to create landscapes to phase out on hopefully relaxing the eyes after a hard days brow furrowing. Trying to create an artistic process in line with holistic earth living authenticity I am my own self supplying art maker as long as I remain also a photographer.
This collage is almost sculptural in its rise and fall of obsessively cut up and interlinked pieces. I made this with a sprained hand so the desire to work was strong. it undulates with the stretch of the canvas moves from water grass and sky not a place but a feeling.
