A Portable Analogue Mini Collage Kit
Collage is a borderland process. As a way of making, collage touches upon the borders of various skills and knowledge: research, gathering, haptic making, composition and decomposition.
In terms of epistemology and a theory of knowledge based on the mind’s relation to reality, collage has no right or wrong; it has, I would argue, only ongoing tension, a process of testing and development. A process for finding a series of images that ‘work’ or ‘fit’ and that respond to our own interpretations. Collages may result in things that we have never imagined before but have echoes of meaning from the parts of the images, photos or textures used.
I am exploring the process of analog collage — a means of reportage, documentation and image-making as an inspiration tool. This continues from my Wild Collage project supported by Gordon Peter Pickard Travel Award in 2018.
How can a mini analog kit bring portability to the collage process? Bringing this kit on the Sail Britain Life of Islands Residency was an amazing opportunity to test the kit and the processes, I am aiming to build a kit that can be easily transported and aims to minimize the materials needed to engage with an environment through collage. Often documentation via collage involves photographing the environment and then leaving it to go to another space to print and collage with the photos — a process that frustratingly removes you from the environment you are documenting. The idea with this kit is that everything can happen in the moment and in the environment.
Whilst responding to the opportunity to make in new environments, I was also inspired by the stories that we heard and read about such as the Isle of Rhum "Leaving Stone". I also read The Man Who Loved Islands by D.H. Lawrence whilst on the trip and hope that all of these infused the images made
