Remnants of Red
original collage,
magazine rippings on cardboard
appr. 6.5 x 9"
Hi!
Finally, I am back in the creative mood a little. Last Sunday I took out my papers and gluestick and made four collages!
This is the first one. I chose this title because the faces of the Chinese people seem to remind of a time when this huge country was very closed up to foreign influences. This collage is made from an auction magazine of Christies. We have a Christies real estate agent in our village and sometimes when I come along this business, I notice a new magazine in one of their outside boxes. The first time I went inside and asked if this could be taken home by me, I simply could not imagine that it was for free, with all this great art pictures inside...! Since that time I have gathered three and they hold a wealth of collage material. The red part is symbolizes the red communistic period. And the bottom part is just that: the bottom, not meaning anything more than that I liked the result and it seemed to form a stand on which the man and woman seem to be positioned.
That was it from me today, I hope you like my new start of collages!
