Collage and mixed media art combine diverse materials, such as paper, fabric, paint, and found objects, to create layered, textured works that defy traditional boundaries. This art form encourages experimentation, allowing artists to blend techniques like painting, drawing, stitching, and digital manipulation into a single piece. The result is often deeply personal and visually dynamic.
Collage has roots in ancient art but gained prominence in the 20th century through movements like Cubism and Dada. Mixed media builds on this legacy, embracing innovation and storytelling through unconventional materials. Whether it’s a portrait made from torn paper or a canvas layered with acrylics and textiles, these works invite viewers to explore meaning through texture, contrast, and composition.
