WORLD COLLAGE DAY 2023: Saturday May 13th 2023

I am truely thrilled and honoured to have been selected by the Kolaj Institute as the World Collage Day Artist 2023. The Kolaj Institute alongside Kolaj Magazine do massive work in the exploration and expansion of the potential of collage, in promoting of collage as a medium on the international stage, as well as the training of collage artists through residencies and workshops. It was my honour this year to create the World Collage Day Poster (Seen above), Special Edition Magazine Cover and 8 Postcards to celebrate the day.

I will also be talking part in a Kolaj Live Online talk, this Sunday 26th of February AT 7PM-8PM GMT. I will be discussing the work which I created for for World Collage Day 2023 with Ric Kasini Kadour, and we will be hearing from others about the special events they have planned for the day.

Read more from the organisers below:

“World Collage Day is an annual, international celebration of collage on the Second Saturday of May. Initiated by Kolaj Magazine in 2018, we invited artists and art venues to hold events on that day to celebrate collage. World Collage Day is about artists connecting across borders against a global context of entrenchment and separation. And the day is about an art medium that excels at bringing different things together to create new forms and new ways of thinking. Ric Kasini Kadour, the editor of Kolaj Magazine, writes, “We created World Collage Day because we wanted to honour this community of artists and to remind the world what a spirit of cooperation, mutual support, and creativity can look like.”
