Sorry no art postings recently – I have a portrait commission and some applications to do before I can get on with the creativity. Right now I’m going through a collage phase, so you can expect some of that – it’s not a technique I normally use, but I’m enjoying it a lot.
When you’re working with found materials, it constrains and guides you in unexpected ways, which is paradoxically very freeing. (I, like many others, become slightly paralyzed by unlimited options: see this New Yorker book review if you don’t believe me).
Anyway, I just ran across this new U2 video, which represents the collage sensibility quite well. Plus, it’s fun to try and name all the classic and contemporary musicians in it.
