Put Things Away Clean


This my fourth collage for The 9th International Collage Exhibit and Exchange.
I found this advertisement in a very old magazine. It adds the title "Put Things Away Clean" to this collage. The found blocks of paper add contrast and sense of complication and layeredness. The bottom most piece of paper us a magazine picture of a wedding dress.
The other piece of text tells of the hemlock tree. Hemlocks are poisonous. Hemlock is the purported poison used in the state commanded suicide of Socrates.
The contrast of these 2 thoughts fascinate me. I placed the dark red as the dividing line between the two thoughts.
