Artwork Description

Mixed Media on paper, ready to hang.

Signed on the back.

This artwork comes with an external frame

Ready to hang - total size 42cm x 52cm x 3cm depth black minimal frame with acid free white mount and light weight Perspex, ''Of things past and lost - Transitory #4" (series of 2- sold individually) is constructed and reworked with recycled, hand dyed with organic dyes, paper. Reutilising recycled papers to speak of the transient and impermanent nature in our our lives. Making a new story. I defy the notion that the personal and private in artmaking is self seeking or immature. Instead I diffidently use the personal as a starting point in my art making process. Like taking cuttings from a personal garden. The series 'Of things past and lost' looks at loss.

Although I finished my fine arts bachelors degree with a painting major , I embraced a more intimate and personal process which I find with collage, mixed media encompassing at times needlework and collage and small reworked domestic items.

Collage especially allows this reworking and pastiche to make a new story or 'paint' a new picture. I adore the process and opportunities that collage allows and embrace using and recycling vintage papers and magazines - currently vintage French fashion magazines and discarded books from the 1950's and 60's - the ephemeral and the discarded. That which is fleeting/ passing and impermanent and giving new life and form - a new story.
