Paper Trail is an exhibition presenting collaborations between collage artists, and involves more than twenty artists from around the globe passing work back and forth, mainly through the postal service.
These exchanges of art challenge the collaborating artists to interpret, expand upon, or completely change the initial ideas. There then exists a long-distance dialogue between two artists (and sometimes more than 2 artists) where they encounter playful and surprising reactions to their contribution, pushing them out of their comfort zone. The exchanging and mailing of art also creates a sense of connectivity at a time of social distancing.
All the work in the show are pieces made in collaboration with, and from the catalogue of, Axelle Kieffer. As collage, these works include imagery harvested from all sorts of ephemera: postcards, magazines, recycled images, photographs, and any material the collage artist may have on hand.
This exhibition is an exciting and diverse journey embarked upon by artists involved in this alternative art culture; glued, attached and sewn together by these paper trails.
