Jurors Carlos Hernandez, Shanna Strauss, and Chadwick Tolley selected work from over 700 entries to craft a vibrant and wide-ranging exhibition that explores the act of layering. While there are some traditional prints in the exhibition that use collaging to craft their imagery, the work has a lot of material exploration, including fabric, currency, thread, plant matter, stamps, lotto tickets, gum wrappers, and dictionary pages. These media are expertly collaged through methods such as printing, sewing, gluing, and screwing. Superimposed exemplifies how practices can converge and be enhanced by the art of collage.
About the artist
Sharon Burton
My collage practice explores identity, memory, and transformation through layered imagery and texture. Working intuitively with found materials, I create visual narratives that reflect personal and collective experiences. Each piece becomes a space for reflection, inviting viewers to uncover meaning, connection, and the beauty of reassembled fragments.
