Assemblage Art
Assemblage art involves the creation of three-dimensional artworks by combining various found objects and materials. The essence of assemblage art lies in the artful juxtaposition and arrangement of these objects to create visual narratives or evoke emotions.
In assemblage art, literally anything is fair game when it comes to what could be included. Everyday items are often sourced from the artist’s surroundings and can hold personal significance in the creation of the piece.
Assemblage artists often embrace the concept of repurposing and recycling, giving new life and purpose to forgotten or discarded items. They challenge the boundaries of traditional art forms, blurring the lines between sculpture, collage, and installation art.
The results are often eclectic and thought-provoking. They stir the imagination, inviting viewers to reflect on the juxtaposition of the objects and the narratives they convey. The works can range from whimsical and playful to deeply introspective, depending on the artist's intention and the viewer's interpretation.
Pcitured above is a piece entitled Solitude in the Painted Forest by mixed media artist, Jen Hardwick, whose work inspired this article.
