Collection: Digital Collage Prints: Frames , Canvas Backs & Gallery Settings
This series is about frames, canvas backs and the non-public life of artworks. I collect images of frames and to me they are beautiful sculptures in their own right. I imagine what a canvas back could look like and the hidden history of the artwork itself. In this series I also look at the physical gallery, the artwork installation and the act of private viewing of the artwork.
The gray photo cards and the color photo control cards are part of the artwork as it is part of the not-usually-seen life of the artwork.
This series is assembled from my own photographs and/or artworks with some Public Domain elements that have been restored, edited, colorized and reshaped into new original work.
