The term collage is derived from the French verb "coller," which means "to glue," however the medium and process of collage has broadened and come to include three-dimensional assemblage, digital stitching, video layering and more.
As a creative strategy, collage often attempts to deviate from deliberate and reasoned constructions of meaning, relying instead on the use of residual imagery and objects to create narrative detours and fantastic new forms.
