“But down among the reeds and rushes A baby girl was found Her eyes as clear as centuries Her silky hair was brown.”

A baby girl was found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair was brown.”

Collage on paper (2018)
All rights reserved.
Completed in only forty-five minutes, this collage was composed entirely of cut paper and completed in record time. This artist carried the memory of seeing the exhibition “Frank Stella Unbound: Literature and Printmaking” at the Princeton Art Museum in 2018 which had a profound impact.
Source materiel came from Max Ernst visuals, cut scraps of paper and a book on Tudor England. “But down among the reeds and rushes…” is a reaction against what this artist saw as the myriad proliferation of slick, robotic, one-liner collages made digitally clogging social media.
