The art of collage is an opportunity to rewrite history. Through the action of cut and paste we are given the ability to reinvent the preexisting, to generate something very much one’s own accounts. Our cultural memory can be altered and twisted through the hands of an artist, working with familiar images that are taken apart and put together into something new transforms our previous perceptions. Collage teaches the artist and viewer to open their mind, an apple isn’t always an apple, it can be whatever our imagination desires. “What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.”
