Art From Non-Art Submission

We have had a talk from Dan, who introduced us to the 'Art from Non-Art' exhibition.

"‘Art From Non-Art’ is a collaborative exhibition celebrating appropriation within the arts, specifically the medium of collage. The title of the exhibition refers to the act of appropriating pre-existing objects and images with little or no artistic value and transforming them into an individual piece of art. Applicants are encouraged to use both traditional cut and paste methods and/or digital manipulation along with any other medium they see fit.
There is no set subject matter for the designs, the only criteria is that all designs must incorporate appropriation  in some form."

He recommended a few different collage artists to us:

- Beth Hoeckel

- Hort

- Robert Rauschenberg

- DR.ME

- Ill Studio

- Louis Reith

- Ellery James Roberts

- Leif Podhajski

- Mat Maitland

- Richard Prince

- Ventral is Golden

- John Stezaker

I have chosen to submit a collage I created a while ago in connection with a previous project. The piece is called 'Daddy Long Legs'.


I like this collage because it is quirky and fun!
