My very first collage: Relationship I / Hollywood – was left in Paris, France on a wall of a square near the intersection of Rue Brisemiche and Rue du Cloître Saint-Merri on 5/14/10. I had finished it several days earlier.
I use old record covers as a starting point for my hand-cut and paste collages. I then use only found objects or items from the trash, recycling bin, or 99¢ flea market boxes. Sometimes incorporating my own Polaroid photographs. Then I leave them out in public as street art for everyone to enjoy (or destroy.)
See where it was left in Paris:
