“Memories that come at night take me to another time…” is a quote from “Photographs and Memories” song recorded by American folk and rock singer-songwriter Jim Croce (1943 – 1973) on his album You Don’t Mess Around with Jim (1972). The phrase seems to be the perfect comment for my artwork “Memory Layers“. The piece is a collage and its sizes are 72 x 52 cms. As all my collage works, the artwork is all done with waste paper from torn and decomposed advertising posters. Its compositional process is articulated in the phase of de-construction of the paper material (collected at the billboards) and its re-composition in a unitary scene using small pieces of waste paper.
