INSIDE THE SPECIAL EDITION<\/h1>\n

In his Editorial, Ric Kasini Kadour tells the story, “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to This Special Edition”. With a passion for print and a love of old books, Michael Pajon makes dense compositions and he is the\u00a02018 World Collage Day Poster Artist.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We present inspiration and cut-out pages from an international roster of artists:<\/p>\n

“From Where I Am”<\/strong> is\u00a0series of collage by\u00a0Jessica Oreck\u00a0that combines wanderlust, collecting, and a fascination with detritus.\u00a0Class of \u201861 <\/strong><\/em>is a\u00a0collage by\u00a0Jade Legault, who uses dada-esque elements to manifest levity.\u00a0Danielle Cole’s advice for the travelling collagist is that “we must find our allies”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Donnalynn Chase speaks to the collision of synchronicity and intention<\/strong> in collage making. The verkstad<\/em><\/strong> of John Kieltyka’s youth was also a place of community. A gift of a pair of red scissors<\/strong> from her artist mother confirmed Carla Ayala as a collagist.\u00a0Ben DiNino’s advice to collagists: Start with what you love<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Kathy Johnson sees an endless supply and variety<\/strong> of materials for collage. Afraid of wasting interesting materials collected at thrift stores and garage sales<\/strong>, Sara Willadsen finally began collaging her large collection of ephemera. Chilean journalist\u00a0started collaging as a psychomagic act<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Fanclub13 uses trash and found objects, the magic of torn gum wrappers<\/strong>, to hand-cut and paste collages and then he leaves them out on the street for people to find.\u00a0Alicja Kieczka writes, “Collage is a mix of youth, freedom and a tiny drop of cockiness, and tastes especially delicious<\/strong> when not treated seriously.”\u00a0 Shona Chornenki gets lost in the process<\/strong>. Sometimes she just collects and cuts. Other times, she sorts and catalogues.<\/p>\n

Nancy Dominique’s advice to a young collagist<\/strong>: “Practice with the images you can find in your daily life.”\u00a0Janice McDonald remembers the first time she experienced being able to create her own reality on the page. As she says, “One thing led to another<\/strong>.” Look around you<\/strong>: “There\u2019s so much collage material around our day to day environment that you can use for free,” says Jean Edwards. Neil Corcoran gets his materials from weird art stores, thrift shops, and the free bin at the library and makes his collage with a blade and some glue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The World Collage Day Special Edition is a love letter from collagists.<\/p>\n
