Four collages by Kon Markogiannis

Kon Markogiannis

A series of collages inspired by great artists of the past such as Kurt Schwitters. Bits and pieces of newspaper, calendar pages, and other discarded ephemera take on new life by being combined, juxtaposed and superimposed; through playful improvisation and experimentation, they form mysterious alliances proving that even the (seemingly) worthless can have value and meaning.
