Collage Art - Elizabeth Hamilton

by Janet Elizabeth... | September 22nd, 2009

Collage is often about compiling smaller images to create one larger image.  In the case of Hamilton's pieces, deconstruction of one major image is the centerpiece of the collage, therefore ressurecting the destroyed image into something totally new.  Hamilton plays with visage and absurdity, horror and humor, overlaying images that evoke a sense of unease in the viewer.
