Call it Paper Mosaic, call it Recycle Art, call it Mixed Media, call it Papier Collé...
it's Fine Art by Sandhi Schimmel Gold
If a picture is worth a thousand words... these are made from thousands more.
"My work reflects our society's obsession with beauty through advertising - and the endless images that bombard us daily. I appropriate those images and create them anew. My work is a purposeful intermix of images derived from advertising and thousands of incongruent pieces - images and text - that arrive through my mailbox. Assembled like a mosaic; the junk mail paper tiles create an entirely new image - an eclectic and tactile portrait reworked in my imagination, employing manual dexterity and materials that would otherwise go to waste."
- Sandhi Schimmel Gold
