Sarcastic Collage

My analog collages are works of art that are made by cutting and pasting together clipped images from 1950's and 1960's magazines. These images may include photographs, advertisements, magazine covers and other images found in vintage magazines. I select the images based on the final effect I want to obtain, creating compositions that recall Pop Art. One of the distinctive aspects of my collages is that I use very few elements to create a minimal and clean work. This style gives the work an elegant and sophisticated look, despite the use of period images and ironic or provocative tones. The analog technique, cutting and pasting images by hand instead of using digital editing software, gives the works a sense of authenticity and craftsmanship.
