She frequently juxtaposes the manufactured images from advertising with those of the natural world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mavis Martini began creating her collage \/&#8221;modtage&#8221; works in 2012. Strictly using vintage magazines and old books in an analog process, she is a self-taught artist transforming a hobby into a more deliberate activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She currently maintains a day job in the film industry and anticipates expanding her modtage avocation into d\u00e9cor items such as vases, magnets and boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ARTIST CONTACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:mavismart@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">click to email<\/a>]<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mavismartini\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">INSTAGRAM<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mavis-martini-now-that-youve-acquired-a-taste.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"874\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mavis-martini-now-that-youve-acquired-a-taste.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mavis-martini-now-that-youve-acquired-a-taste.jpg 700w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mavis-martini-now-that-youve-acquired-a-taste-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mavis-martini-now-that-youve-acquired-a-taste-210x262.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Now That You&#8217;ve Acquired a Taste<\/em><br>14&#8243;x11&#8243;;
