I’m a collagist, storyteller and accidental archivist – welcome to my torn and cut-up world

21/07/2024

Berlinage 2024: JaJaJa, collage on canvas panel, my play piece during the residency – torn paper, two gents taken from a vintage Canadian oom pah pah record, one of my favourite sculptures from Germany 2015 and the Berlin Bear raising a bier. Am I a Berliner? EiNeiNeiNein, and that’s the definitive answer. Another little surprise: Recognize the gal in the car, circa 1990?

Berlinage 2024: ohne Title/Untitled, collage on canvas panel, part of the ’s Circle Challenge: All of us took part in the challenge where you create a collage using at least one component of material chosen by a fellow collagist along with some of your own materials. The (paper) sky’s the limit! My work includes an old image transfer I made years ago, lips from a torn-down Berlin street poster, GDR stamps from my in-law’s correspondence with family and flora I found on the street near the gallery, plus silver text. Loved being part of such a collaboration! You can see and purchase here: https://www.berlincollagecollective.com/shop/berlinage-special/ohne-titel-made-by-ginger-sedlarova/

Finally! I’ve been wanting to share my fabulous Berlinage residency experience for weeks but life kept getting in the way. So much to post, so here we go:

Einheit, collage on board, Berlinage 2024: I walked around Berlin looking for fonts and neon and typography. I rode the U-Bahn, jumping off at every stop on several lines to shoot every station name — love how they all have wildly different fonts, especially the disco font of Pankstrasse!

P.S. Love sneaking little surprises into my boards. This collage includes a nod to my dear Dad. Love you, Papa...

My posts here have been intermittent for a while, I know. I've been working alongside my wonderful siblings to care for my dear father and fulfill his wish to pass away at home. He did so recently, finally comfortable and without pain, while holding my hand. This page will be quiet for a bit longer as I try to process losing my father, best friend, mentor and so much more. But on the other side of my grief is the knowledge that he's no longer in constant pain and is with my mom. And the memories of how much damn fun we always had! Thanks for understanding... xoxo

Color creates, enhances, reveals. Especially when you're in Berlin.

While I work, work, work on my next series I'm unable to post much except my collage process here & there. So I'm posting a selection of my favourite photos that I've taken over many years and miles. I hope you enjoy...

Shapes of things to come

🎶 They say it’s my birthday, Happy Birthday to me! 🎶 That little scamp in the foreground always wanted to be an artist when she grew up — run away from suburbia, study at the Liverpool College of Art, create in a tiny chilly London flat with only Paul McCartney to keep her warm. Prague got in the way, and design, and newspapers. It took a few decades and that little girl never really grew up, but finally her dream of being an artist has come true. Add one fabulous husband, two cuddly cats and family and friends she adores. Lucky birthday girl. Now, where’s that Paul McCartney gotten to…

A door symbolizes transition, metamorphosis. It is a boundary between sacred and profane, mysterious and familiar, light and dark, life and death… It is an allegory of beginning, opening, exit that leads from one state of being to the next.
– Nato Giorgadze

Doors have always fascinated me, for the reasons listed above but also for their individual beauty, history, their stories. I spent a decade in Europe pointing my camera at hundreds, perhaps thousands of doors. One door I passed through recently brought me face-to-face with the fantastic work of Sascha Westendorp and her stunning mixed media paintings that showcase the colours and details of the many portals she’s witnessed. I highly recommend viewing her work, on view now at The Gallery George, 140 W. Hastings until October 29.

Shown: ‘Narrow Pathways Can Lead To Amazing Adventures,’ mixed media on canvas, 48”×48"

Pictures From An Exhibition, specifically The Gallery George’s True Colours exhibition reception last Friday evening! The gallery was packed, the wine was flowing and the art was awesome. I met some incredible fellow artists and lost count of the amount of times I overheard someone saying, “This exhibition is great!” The show will go on until October 29 at 140 W. Hastings – definitely visit and enjoy some great work!
