Buon marted\u00ec a tutti, miei cari Zeldiani!<\/em>
\nOggi \u00e8 una giornata da occhi spalancati e sorriso a fior di pelle: \u00e8 con noi Vivienne Strauss, che ci parla del suo amore per i collages. Collages bellissimi, di cui sono letteralmente innamorata! Ne possiedo uno dedicato alla scrittura e sono in attesa di appenderlo al “muro delle macchine da scrivere”. Che stia cominciando una collezione?!<\/em><\/p>\n

Potete interagire con Vivienne sul suo blog<\/a>\u00a0e su facebook<\/a>.
\nAmmirare e, perch\u00e9 no, acquistare le sue opere su flickr<\/a> e etsy (qui<\/a> e qui<\/a>).
\n<\/em>
\nBaci molto belli a tutti!<\/em>

\"\"While I consider myself primarily a painter, I do love to also work in collage. \u00a0I find it to be a nice break from painting and it also allows me to express ideas that would not be possible in other mediums. \u00a0I love combining human and mechanical elements in my work and also finding the human in the mechanical.<\/p>\n

1. Factory Made<\/span><\/em>\"\"<\/strong><\/div>\n
\u00a0This one is very much inspired by the Dada movement as is most of my collage work.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
2. \u00a0The Sacrificial Secretary<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/strong>Inspired by the Ernest Hemingway quote\u00a0\u201cThere is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed\u201d.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. The Thought Machine<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/div>\n

\"\"This is a “self portrait” – my mind is always racing in so many directions, and I am always rather frantic that I won’t remember to complete all my ideas or that there just isn’t enough time in which to do them.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n
4. \u00a0The Assassin<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I love incorporating not just mechanical things into my collage, but especially cameras. \u00a0This is also inspired by my love of French film noir, in particular, Le Samourai<\/em> with Alain Delon and Touchez pas au grisbi<\/em> with another favorite, Jean Gabin.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. Francine<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/div>\n

\"\"I love finding the “human” in objects like this piece. I also do this when I’m out and about taking photos. So many man made things look like creatures and often trees look as if they have faces…<\/p>\n

You can view more camera collages here<\/a>.<\/div>\n

Thank you always Camilla for allowing me to share me thoughts with your wonderful readers!
