I was in Chicago in mid-August 2003, before going to New Mexico.
Riding the El with a friend, I took several photos of the trains
and platforms, and conceived the collage below. It wasn't till
after I got back from New Mexico that I was able to assemble it,
however; doing so changed my perspective, and I have found myself
creating several other matrix collages since. One of them is a
collage of Santa Fe images; another was created by snapping photos
out the truck window while driving around St. Paul, MN.
I have not yet decided if this is a series of individual pieces,
or a whole new style of making art. Each piece is constructed
on a grid in Photoshop, arranged sequentially or intuitively;
choice of materials is always relevant in constructing a collage.
The finished pieces are all quite large when printed on archival
photo paper.
Meanwhile, more pieces in this series will be added here as they are made.
