collage series inspired by pierre soulages

this collage series was entirely inspired by french painter pierre soualge. in fall 2016, i visited his museum in rodez, france. his black on black paintings, part of his outrenoir (beyond black) series, tapped into something deep within me. and i haven’t stopped thinking about them since that visit. this series, is my first homage to m. soulage, and will certainly not be my last.

this series is made solely with black paint, mixed with different gel mediums to create different finishes from matte to gloss.

i made this collage series while i was living in a rented house in southern france. i had only a limited amount of art materials available to me, so i went into the pantry looking for packaging bits to work with. i found inspiration in the typography used on the cereal boxes, tea boxes, and bread bags.
