THE ART OF COLLAGE

Interstellar collages by Eugenia Loli

Eugenia Loli is one of many artists featured in The Age of Collage—a striking documentation of today’s continued appetite for destructive construction—comprising a broad scope of collage artists through the ages. Using analog photographs from across the decades, Loli creates interstellar digital collages that are intriguing and thought provoking. Originally from Greece, Loli now lives in California, where the influence of the Hollywood Hills is reflected in the glitz and glam of her work. However, beneath the fake veneer of pearly whites and red lipstick is a dark sense of humor, where children casually play with water pipes and busty brassieres as the main attraction in a packed theater. Loli admits that Julien Pacaud inspired her to take up collaging, and her work echoes Pacaud’s trademark decade-defying pastiches.
