POSTAGE STAMP COLLAGES
These collages are made of used postage stamps.
Artists's Statement
Postage stamps, like music and smells, invite excursions of the mind. The brilliant reds of the 1965 Herbert Hoover 5-cent or the unusual bronze 1964 William Shakespeare 5-cent postage stamp bring forth memories of a child stamp collector and travels into distant time, such as my first exposure to Romeo and Juliet or President Hoover’s responses to children’s letters in On Growing Up. Folks often ask, “How do you generate your ideas for these collages?” A simple answer is, “As I sort through my hundreds of thousands of stamps, my mind wanders and I explore what these pieces of paper suggest, these small representations of human interactions with one another and our environments. And ideas come.”
