Artists from North America, Europe, and Latin America responded to a call from the Mystic Krewe of Scissors &amp; Glue. Individually, the collages reflect the work of independent artists and show a variety of approaches to appropriation or intervention. Collectively, the book offers many opportunities to consider collage as a medium, genre, and community. Project organizer Christopher Kurts observed, &#8220;<em>Unfamiliar Vegetables<\/em> is an experiment in controlled chaos\u2026.tiny variations within each artist&#8217;s creative sphere accumulate until the outcomes are as unique as the people creating them.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.kasinihouseartshop.com\/product\/unfamiliar-vegetables\">ORDER A COPY<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"708\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10371\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1-600x607.jpg 600w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1-300x303.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1-560x566.jpg 560w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1-260x263.jpg 260w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kerith-Lisi-The-Journey-of-Seeds-1-160x162.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption><em>The Journey of Seeds<\/em> by Kerith Lisi<br>(7.5&#8243;x8&#8243;; bookcloth, thread, paper, adhesive; 2019)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Unfamiliar Vegetables<\/em> is made possible through the support of the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kolajinstitute.org\/support.html\" target=\"_blank\">Silver Scissors &amp; Golden Glue Societies<\/a>.
