Digital Collages
Printed matter and magazine images are mass produced, and Kirsten deals with the different characteristics in colour and print techniques that impact how the printed image looks throughout the decades.
In her collage work she not only addresses the process of moving an image or a fragment of a motif into a new context, but also how the mass produced image portrays history, being material itself.
The connection between the image from a mass produced image source, the new context in which it is placed and the reworking of it in multiple techniques, is key to her collage work.
She employs different digital and analogue tools and techniques in this process.
