Woodblock Print Collages

Thousands of little tiny pieces of rice paper.
In making these collages, I overlay patterns of my own design, which I have based on wallpaper, tile, and architectural decoration. I’m interested in these patterns and how they speak to us through time.

I cut several different versions of the same basic print—prints with different color combinations in the same matrix—and then layer them back together and glue each little piece individually. The pattern emerges out of this process of layering.
