Piece by Piece

“My work reflects our society’s obsession with beauty through advertising – and the endless images that bombard us daily. It is a purposeful intermix of images derived from advertising and thousands of incongruent pieces – images and text – from advertising that arrives through my mailbox. Assembled like a mosaic; the paper tiles create an entirely new image – an eclectic and tactile portrait reworked in my imagination, utilizing materials that would otherwise go to waste.” —Sandhi Schimmel Gold

Wow…these are amazing. And the fact that it’s all created from actual advertisements is wonderful. How long did it take to collect all of the material? Again, it’s absolutely amazing. Thanks for not being to lazy to create.
