Marissa Anne Ayala STATEMENT Art is the way one moves through the world. In this work, I deconstruct my experience of New York City through photographs, art prints, found objects, and combine language with images to reconstruct the city that is ever changing and evolving. The collage is an exploration of how one encounters the urban landscape, the imagination, and the dream-like way our minds work through relationships, architecture, and find meaning in place(s).
