COLLECTive Concerns: Collage and Assemblage
New Release - 2023
New Release - 2023
Eleven artists explore collage and assemblage as a coping mechanism, siren call, or cautionary warning for collective concerns that impact culture.
Their “collections” are focused on environmental, emotional, and societal stressors; collective concerns that address climate change, covid, grief, identity, and politics.
Whimsical to macabre; refined to raw, poetic to strident; their intimate works pack a hefty punch that belie their small scale.
Assembled from discarded but highly curated materials, each artist presents a unique collection of works that speak to the challenges posed by unprecedented times.
