smoke & mirrors
Some days, one has to put one foot in front of the other and simply hope for the best. When searching for today’s Artist of the Day for AAAD, I stumbled on to the work of Julia Geiser. This work perfectly illustrates my week. (continues below)
“When I first started to work with collage (in 2012) I really got attached to the method. With collage I am allowed to work fast and the pictures I create are more likely a sketch of an idea then an in all details finished picture. I only use pictures from the Internet. So the online-voyeurism becomes an inspiration to me. In such a way my work grasps a larger ground. It becomes a debate about rights and licenses, about privacy and commons, about ownership and laws. The collages always oscillate between visual and legal borders.” — Julia Geiser
