📢✂️Intentional Selection Coverage in Kolaj Magazine #40✂️📢

It really is something to see coverage of this years Intentional Selection festival at the Linenhall Arts Centre, Castlebar, Co.Mayo printed within the hallowed pages Kolaj Magazine #40. I wanted to say a big thanks to Ric Kasini Kadour for “Ceiliúradh Pobail” his article providing coverage and support and insight into this summers festival.

Intentional Selection was really great to put together with Silvio Severino, Una Gildea and Deirdre Melvin. Personally, I discovered many new artists, as well as new works by some old favorites. As Ric states in his article “ Of all the art mediums, collage is about bringing people together, breaking down hierarchies, and celebrating creativity”.

Kolaj Magazine Issue #40 also features:
✂️”What Does Freedom Look Like?” a fantastic interview by Jennifer Roach with Annete Sagal, Katya Syta and Olha Syta of the Kyiv Collage Collective on their powerful continuing cultural work and the growth of the CUTOUT FESTIVAL in spite of the war.
✂️“I Contain Multitudes” fantastic coverage of a traveling group exhibition which considers blackness in American collage by Kelly M. Johnson.
✂️”Attention & Connection” a vitalizing and interesting article on the work of the Dutch collagist Anneke Stil by Helen Hartmann.
✂️A whole host of other writings and images from international collage artists doing incredible things.
