I’m not a very good Tumblr-er. I mean I think I was, like 7 years ago? Gonna give it another go.

Finished my latest “peek-a-boo” collage today and I adore her.

The piece is 2′ x 4′ on cherrywood panel. The materials are 2 very different magazines from the same year: Philadelphia Enquirer and Frolic. I’m going to make a series of smaller works from the same sources. On to the next!

A peek-a-boo piece in process. Enjoying the slow progression.

Finished this week: a peek-a-boo piece featuring a large scale copy of an original collage covered with layer upon layer of tiny strips of the May 2014 issue of Artforum.

So much texture.

[sacha-halona-baumann]

Progress on this piece. Having obsessive fun cutting strips of ARTFORUM and adhering them to a photocopy of my collage. And it’s big!

The next big event at Keystone Art Space will be June 20—save the date.

I’ve been participating in #The100DayProject by picking an object in my studio each day and blogging about it. I’m calling it #100DaysStudioObj. These are the first 8 days of objects. 

The project has got me thinking about process, fetishizing, hoarding, creative inspiration. And it’s also got me making—I began experimenting with a new large collage.
