Finding an object can be accidental<br />and trigger a chain reaction of thoughts and associations.<br /><br />Combining common objects, landscapes are resulting in something new and unexpected images; seemingly logical and realistic scenes.<br /><br />The collage for me is a "snapshot", recording my glimpses <br />into an improbable or Metaphysical world.<br /><br />The titles are part of the works in attempt to express "meaning"<br />by describing the scenes or situations of the collages.<br /><br />Does everything we see has meaning or has to have meaning?<br /><br />It is up to you the viewer to find meaning in the meaningless images.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18502201-121341829348753101?l=absolutista.blogspot.com'/></div>absolutely meaninglesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02201395768510064791noreply@blogger.com1
