Deviation #4 with Fork, 2021

This piece is part of some experimental art I’ve been making called the Deviation series — a series about the action of departing from an established course or accepted standard. A central theme to collage and to my work is a constant questioning of how disparate objects can somehow fit together and how they can work in strange new ways to illicit personal memories and narratives. This work was made by creating a digital collage of period objects and then enlarging and remaking that collage with fragmented pieces.
