I like people

People like me

People don´t always like me

I don´t always like people

They are all around me

and I am all around them

They make strange noises

as I do when I am alone

Someone would call it a Zoo

I love beasts.

10 Alberonero - Campogalliano | Modena

Black wall.
One green window.
Gray sky.
Many tiles with moss.
Nonna Luciana, in Italian, cooking the typical "tortellini".
Sara is beautiful.
The composition slanted white is the axis of reflection of the window.
This situation creates another window overturned that gives balance to the wall.

3 Bob May - Idée fixe

 

In making my collages I restrict myself to using only actual original illustrations from old books. Until last year this meant that my supply of material was very sparse. But I have now found the place where all the old books that nobody wants, that no-one can sell, end up.

They are sent to this warehouse from charity shops nationwide. They arrive in huge lorries, packed in sacks. Inside the warehouse about forty people sort them out, to the accompaniment of the beeps from the fork-lift trucks that whizz backwards and forwards all the time. Some are “old books”, or “pre-ISBN” and these are sent to the corner of the warehouse where the majority are deemed unsellable and are thrown into a skip. These skips are hoisted into the back of a huge bulk-carrying lorry and sent off to become cardboard.

But one day a week I stand by that skip and rescue the odd old book. I might remove only one illustration from a single book, or I might remove a dozen. In my improvised studio at home I store the thousands of pictures salvaged and I stare at them until they talk to me.

In my small way, and as a hobbyist, I hope to entertain people and to stimulate ideas and feelings through my collages. I have found collage to be capable of more expression than I had imagined, but a good deal of thought and feeling has to be poured into it before anything of quality comes out.

Most of the amateur collage that I see on the photo-sharing website that I use strikes me as empty and cheap, not to mention ugly. I hope that I may be influential in raising the standards of collage work to some degree.

I would only nominate Federico Hurtado.

2 Alex Chiu - Bird, Bunny, Bear and Monkey

I usually have no idea what I’m going to draw before I start a piece.
I’ve developed a vocabulary of patterns, characters, objects,
and symbols that I utilize throughout the drawing process,
but the main objective is to fill white space until a picture appears.
It has become a process of surprising myself and not being afraid
to draw something in a way I haven’t before.  In this way, when
I have given up the idea that a piece is supposed to look a certain way,
I can tap into a part of the universe that reveals things to me that
I have never seen or understood before.
This is how I believe an artist grows.

-- Alex Chiu, May 2011
