9" x 7" | OG collage & rubylith |
Select areas of imagery are first dissected, then carefully brought back to life one connection at a time through the surgical practice known as collage. This life, as these frankensteined “originals,” is similar to childhood- finite in time, given the nature of the materials used. That childlike existence is then captured and brought into adulthood when Reger creates another life as these “characters” are re-imagined on wood, with paint. Finally, if their Creator is inspired enough by their previous existences, they make it into the spirit-world through film and animation. It is here they are finally allowed to move and have eternal life.
