Collage Fantastique!: 1,000+ Queer Things to Snip and Stick<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

by Peter Platel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Collage Fantastique!<\/em> is a collection of 1,000+ images for you to cut out and stick down in your own creations. Collage is an inherently queer artform – just ask the queer artists who created it. And activity books and crafts are things that queer people turn to for mindful escapism to create new worlds, even new drag personas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the book includes images of collage essentials like plants, cats, goldfish and skyscrapers, but it also include joyful, sexy and symbolic LGBTQ+ imagery – from green carnations to suggestive flowers, pink triangles to violets, and of course rainbows to men and women wearing very little whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring the fantastic work of prominent collage artist Peter Platel, this book is all you need to get collaging – the queer way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
