“Doing collage was not ever something I thought about a few years ago, but now I see it as a natural, logical movement from the kinds of abstract erasure paintings (over Wonder Woman comics) I was doing in college. Now I think about collage as a good way to paint and draw with paper (appropriating color and line), and it’s freeing. Combining collage with prints allows me to release lots of independent visual problems I’m working out in my head. As a writer, I also connect the process of making a collage very closely with writing, particularly poetry. I’ve been writing poetry over the last year or so, and I formulate these small groupings of images in a similar way that I create phrases and words in a poem.”
