'Small Stories #3' a favourite from this ongoing series. Speaking to many 'small stories' with a nostalgic nod to the past. Discerningly and thoughtfully collected from many vintage sources, some images selectively distorted or obscured with paint, 154 'small stories'.
The small stories that give meaning or enable understanding.
I honour recycle/reuse within my art practice, and I celebrate paper. The found, the unwanted, the discarded. I like to give new life to the ādisposableā and shine light on those āsmall storiesā with vintage papers, with analogue collage and mixed media.
Beautifully framed in a white painted wooden box frame by master framer Andrew Bassett.
I am moving studios and need to downsize.
