This collage grew out of my interest in layering images and interrupting them through cutting and rearranging. The circular openings reveal parts of other colours and patterns beneath the surface, creating small moments of discovery inside the composition.
I enjoy working with fragments from different painted surfaces and bringing them together in new ways. The patterns, marks and colours begin to interact with each other, sometimes harmonising, sometimes creating tension.
For me the piece is about looking through the surface of things — how a simple cut or shift can open another visual space inside the image.
