my process
-
1
GATHER
I comb thrift stores, estate sales, my friends’ recycling bins, etc. and collect printed materials like magazines, catalogues and books.
-
2
CUT!
I really loves to cut. It takes a stupidly long time, but I use an x-acto to precisely cut out every plant, person, or object I want to use.

ASSEMBLE
I create compositions by layering the imagery I’ve cut out, and once I’m satisfied, I take a picture and deconstruct the whole thing. Out comes the glue and I put it back together once and for all.
