Collage is the way artist I-Chien Wu uses mixed media art to connect with her audience. Through her curiosity about the world around her, she uses textures, vintage items, and even other people’s trash to create thought-provoking artworks. Discover more about her art and her process, and how she threads all these elements together to create connections. I-Chien Wu views art as a connection: the connection between the world, the artist, and the art — and between the art, the viewer, and the world. She connects with her surroundings through vintage items, as well as by engaging in sustainable practices, using people’s trash to create intricate artworks that tell a unique story. Through her work, she asks questions of the viewer and challenges preconceived ideas about our lives and how we live. For her, art is a metaphor, a medium, and a way to connect with the world around us.
