Sandy Matta
Sandy is a Syrian/Lebanese creative based in East London. Her day job is in filmmaking, but after putting away a career in graphic design, she turned to digital collage art to keep my creativity flowing. When it comes to her style, less is more – “I find the use of archival imagery and negative space a crucial element in expressing a narrative in each collage. I also have interests in absurdist art, and find that it allows me to think laterally on what story is being told when compiling pieces of found imagery together. A majority of my collages were created within the month of February for the annual collage challenge “Februllage”.”
This collection reflects the scale of the feminine experience and what it truly entails. From empowerment to objectification, each collage reflects the nuances of what her and many other women have experienced.
