For my collages, I use small pieces of paper as my palette and “paint” colorful, detailed and often elaborate pictures. They are called “illuminations” and are composed of images of ancient manuscripts. For each collage, I consciously use manuscripts of different religions, languages and styles. The collages pay homage to those who came before us and celebrate the uniqueness of our varied heritages. At the same time, they portray the human interconnectedness and cultural melding that is our global society.
