Collage” comes from the French word, meaning to glue or stick together.
Collage is, in fact, a technique utilized in the art world to create through the process of assembling different forms together to imagine something completely new.
When we think of collage, we usually think of cutting and gluing paper. However, collage is only limited by your imagination and how well your glue holds.
Collage can be created by utilizing a variety of mixed mediums along with – photographs, magazine and newspaper clippings, sheet music,
book pages, product and packaging labels, just to name a few.
The term Papier Colle was coined by both George Barque and Pablo Picasso in the beginning of the 20th Century, when collage became a distinct part of modern art.
Although Braque and Picasso made collage famous and mainstream, these two well-known Parisian artists were not the first to create within this art form.
