Guardedby ~picturefragments

Traditional Art / Collage

paper collage

4 1/2" x 6 1/2"

Winter 2011

The three figures in this work represent the mind, heart, and body. I chose to depict them as suits of armor to convey the idea of being personally guarded in one's thoughts, feelings, and actions. The roses are meant to symbolize love finding its way into the heart while the guard's back is turned.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

_{Some materials used in this work were derived from various magazine sources, perhaps including, but not exclusive to; National Geographic, National Geographic Travel, Architectural Digest, Architectural Record, Outside, Smithsonian, In Style, Playboy, Transworld, Reader's Digest, Sailing, Sports Illustrated, Field & Stream, Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Skateboarder, American Hunter, and American Rifleman.

I have altered, rearranged, and transformed the fragments of photographs and advertisements published in these magazines in a way inconsistent with their original context, focus, and arrangement, so that any derivative use qualifies as de minimus, and therefore does not infringe on any copyright. Additionally, some elements may have been appropriated and recontextualized, qualifying as fair use.}
