A selection of collages constructed with vintage photographs, color pencil, and gouache on paper by Aimée Beaubien.



Cutting into treasured snapshots. Reorganizing fractured material. Connecting forms representing experience and feeling. The primary subject conventionally located in the center of the frame has been cut out and replaced with a painted and drawn impression shaped by the semblance of remembrance. Attention is drawn to the contrast between the fixed frame of the photographic borders and the frenzied mark making contained within and embellishing the experience of recognition.
