katharine rowe – city collages
when she’s not badgering my colleagues and i to meet work deadlines, katharine rowe creates beautiful collages. mixing her own photography and (i presume) stock shots and/or magazine cuttings she creates textured scenes of juxtaposition, reinterpreting our everyday lived space.
she also takes commisions, to create a unique work incorporating family photos, your own street, pets…

i guess the main difference is the use of a computer.
Kath does all these by hand. in real life the texture and depth is revealed, a quality that photoshop can’t ever replicate.
Not being snarky, but just what is the differnce between a good collage piece and a bad photoshop piece?
Well she kept that quiet, they’re great!
