Janice McDonald: “Overlooked Artifacts: The Daily Mail Series”
Working with the remnants of discarded and unanticipated imagery, McDonald creates small artifacts capturing the passage of time, encouraging the viewer to reconsider the visual cacophony in our lives. She is especially intrigued with the often-overlooked backgrounds, colours, textures, shapes, and negative spaces in everyday printed materials. The process of deconstructing images and then re-integrating many pieces, to create something completely new, is an intuitive and ongoing visual experiment. McDonald exhibits internationally and is a signature member of the National Collage Society. She received her BFA from Oregon State University and currently lives and works in Denver, Colorado. Images of her work may be viewed online at her website.
Showing concurrently in the North Gallery at Spark: Members of the Rocky Mountain Collage Society present “Inside the Box: Work inspired by Joseph Cornell”
