Featured work: Bobbie Burgers
In recent years, Burgers has developed a cyclical process that moves fluidly between painting and collage. She often begins with large-scale canvas works, which she photographs in high resolution and uses as the basis for new compositions. Onto these smooth printed surfaces, she paints, cuts, and collages—fracturing and reassembling her own imagery into entirely new mixed-media works. The process, simultaneously playful and exacting, reflects Burgers’ ongoing dialogue between control and chaos. She describes this approach as “managing the chaos,” generating multiple possibilities and defining them only in hindsight. Each collage becomes a layered puzzle of gesture and texture, where the original source image may be obscured beyond recognition. Rather than functioning as copies, the printed reproductions act as fresh ground for exploration, their shifts in color and surface opening new avenues into abstraction and spatial illusion.
