Collage Artist and Re-animator – Sammy Slabbinck

One of the most favourite art works that I found during my research on "Strange World Collage" done creatively by Collage Artist "Sammy Slabbinck" I really love the way he composite the elements by combining vintage and contemporary images which really stands out of the whole composition. His unique styles and proportions of the images through foreground to background which aim to creating powerful yet simple visual works that spread through with a sense of humour.

Meticulous and Mesmerising collage work from Anthony Gerace

I was very impressed by the two-pieces of collage work created by Mr Anthony Gerace. The very first impression that was given to me was that these images contain a hidden message behind it. As we can see the missing pieces in the artwork, which also sparked my curiosity and questioning ourselves the purpose of the artwork. What I really felt was that the artist wanted us to fill in our own imagination of what the models might look like and it also has a deep meaning of telling us that " Beauty is in the eye of the beholder ". The red lipstick that the artist added in also has a meaning of representing confidence and it also a source of strength. The color, red also has a very strong contrast that the artist wanted us to focus and listening to what the artwork have to say.
