Collage

Jess (Collins) creates collages and above is an example called Bridal Spell. The medium for a collage is glue. A collage is put together with anything that is flat and of the natural element. Some examples would be a printed object from a magazine or the computer, or a fabric of some sorts. The artist then glues the objects onto the paper that they are using. Bridal Spell shows different people pasted all over her picture. Each one sticks out because they looks different from the person next to them. Jess Collins was originally a chemist that became an artist after he had a dream about the end of the world. This is what influenced his artwork because he gets his pictures for his collages from children's books and science textbooks. Each collage is based off of different science ideas such as density and seamlessness.
