Susan Lerner: Connect-To-Cut: Here, There and Everywhere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Woodbury Public Library in Woodbury, Connecticut, USA
2-30 September 2021<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Susan Lerner<\/a> says about her work in this show:<\/em>
As a collage artist, I am intrigued by the physical and metaphorical connection of the map. How a map both literally and figuratively connects us to a place or a time from the past and brings us to the present. Using vintage imagery in hand-cut collages, I conjure up nostalgia for the county I’ve considered my second home for the past two decades. In this exhibit, “Connect-To-Cut: Here, There and Everywhere”, I explore location and memories, often fictionalized, of now and then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also introduce excavated books in this exhibition. Where collage is about the addition and flow of imagery, the deconstructed books are a careful dissection and removal of ‘land’ from the page. Like an archeologist, I track the winding paths of the map’s topography gently digging deep into the layers and sediment to unearth what lies beneath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
