I find that many of the collage ideas and activities that are out there in museums are similar to this type of collage work which is symbolic and often non understandable without an explanation.

The second part, where I had to figure out how to get abstract ideas onto a canvas was not so much fun for me. I loved the beginning of the activity where we got to rip and glue and paint. I chose the Taj Mahal and the slums of Mumbai to show inequality in life and it ended up looking like the image on the right which I titled "Worlds Apart". We then had to use google earth images to depict things relating to either gender, place, time or equality. This was a progressive collage activity that I did at my Summer 2016 Columbus School for Art & Design Summer Educators program where we started by covering the canvas with pieces of ripped magazine, paint and anything else I could find. That is because collage is often presented as the type of activity I did shown in the image above. They can be abstract or very realistic.Ĭollage can be intimidating to some. To define collage we can say that a collage is a piece of artwork made by gluing bits of paper and fabrics to some kind of background like paper, cardboard or canvas.
That's if you understand what a collage is.
