Cut and paste is an exhibition of collages in various forms. As a basis for
these I have used a variety of found images and objects, in combination with
my own drawings, to which I have applied scissors and paste, needle and
thread, and some digital assembly techniques.
In most cases the subjects were suggested by the found images or materials.
The series of pictures of the transit of Venus was triggered by a Google
image search at the time of that event. The sock series was inspired in part
by the work of Rosalie Gascoigne (and her celebration of the inherent beauty
of the materials she used) and in part by the cleaning out of my sock
drawer.
