Daphne Silbiger
Brooklyn, New York, USA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daphne considers character and scene in their collage work, and is interested in the medium’s principle of recontextualization as a method of storytelling. They are interested in the viewer’s experience of creating connections within a work, and rely on strategic relationship-building between “subjects” (i.e. collaged images) to suggest active theatrical effects like gesture and intention. Daphne works exclusively with found paper materials, and creates many of their works using a single source like a magazine or book to try and tease out the gestalt meaning of that source–or, to isolate and investigate concepts such as obedience, mechanization, and dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
