Pieced - Opening Reception
2025-11-06 17:00 - 19:00 | The Gallery, 290 Congress Street, Boston, MA, 02210, United States
Pieced, an exploration of collage, curated by Jessica Burko.
The nature of collage is to create works of art from found, formed, and collected materials. The exhibition, Pieced, is a gathering of artwork that fuses the process of collage with the conceptual framework of the genre. Connecting related or seemingly incongruent elements allows for reflection on the human condition and the intersection of personal history, politics, and global concerns.
Repurposed materials are ripe for the medium of collage as demonstrated by Lisa Barthelson who works with an overflow of everyday items from her own family, as symbols of excessive consumerism, and challenges herself to create sustainable art. Found objects drive Amy Hitchcock as she builds assemblages to create narratives that are frequently prompted by imagined stories emerging from vintage photographs discovered in her own family’s archives or purchased second-hand. Ephemera also lures the collage artist. Blending painting and drawing with accents of personal ephemera, self-taught artist Floberlee Antoine explores spirituality and the quiet struggles of modern life, as Mark Younkle elevates the paper remnants of our rapidly changing culture as he reconstitutes autobiographical ephemera into intricate, irregularly shaped geometrics.
Contemplating what the future might hold, Nancy Harrod asks questions of her viewer and herself: What’s at the threshold of the unknown, what are we leaving behind, and how does one live a life that accommodates the appreciation of beauty while we are facing very present threats? Questioning culture and place is the motivation for Claudia Ruiz Gustafson who focuses on themes of imperialist/supremacist thinking and its construction of histories as Influenced by her cross-cultural experience and Peruvian heritage.
With a multitude of textiles, Sam Fields is able to explore social constructs associated with the decorative arts, gender, class, professional versus hobbyist, and the hierarchical categories of taste and morality, in a similar vein, using altered textiles, Merill Comeau investigates socio-political issues, definitions of value, and histories of women’s labor with modern interpretations of traditional craft techniques. Handcraft often resonates with collage artists, as for Chilean artist Oscar Lazo who was surrounded by seamstresses in childhood, drawn to needlecraft, and was denied access due to cultural gender norms prompting the unique quilting technique in his family woodshop with fabric scraps and a the more accepted tools of a hammer and nails.

Merill Comeau, Edge of Darkness: Remember Me, 2013
Bridging the broad definitions of collage, Wendy Seller seamlessly blends traditional painting techniques with digital image-building, inventing hybridized worlds populated by magical figures and surreal landscapes featuring political commentary, family history, and resistance to the oligarchy in the past and present. Through the myriads of methods, styles, and integrated elements, the Pieced artists present their broad definition of what collage is and can be. Using shears and tape, pixels and thread, residue and stain, this exhibition is part and parcel of the vibrant, and sometimes disruptive, language of collage. To comprehensively describe collage is to begin a lifelong discourse on technique and metaphor, and the artists included in Pieced have done just that.
