MAKING SENSE OF CHAOS
On the heels of Dada, Surrealists adopted and adapted collaging and cut-and-paste techniques. Much like their “automatic” approach to painting, these artists relied on the subconscious to produce one-of-a-kind assemblages made of photographs, illustrations, colored paper, and paint. Working in a similar method, I started with a series of photographs and thousands of magazine pieces, loosely combining images in an effort to organize the randomness into some kind of order. The results are a series of collages combining photographs and magazine clipping assembled together to create new meaning.
When completed the collages lent themselves to a narrative. I invited friend and writer Nicole Evans to create haikus for each image. This book is the resulting collaboration.
