James Gallagher Still Life Collage #34

James Gallagher uses collage as a means to ask questions and explore ideas. The Brooklyn-based artist creates his works from hand-cut paper, which he sources from obscure old books and discarded magazines, as well as other found materials. Working slowly and thoughtfully, he pieces these fragments together until his enigmatic forms and figures emerge. We first discovered Gallagher’s work in Paris and were instantly struck by the stark composition, neutral hues and varied textures that make up each quietly mysteriously piece. A true one-of-a-kind original, the Still Life Collage #34 is displayed in a sleek black shadowbox frame and finished with an attached hanging wire for easy display. Hang it solo — or mix it in with other pieces from our James Gallagher Still Life Collage Collection for a unique installation that will capture any viewer’s imagination.
