Bargello IV

Inspired by traditional Bargello quilting techniques, this mixed-media collage was created using a variety of decorative, vintage screen-printed paper and vintage newspaper, as well as sheet music. Carol Lehmann cut, tore, and sewed the elements together before assembling and mounting; the finished collage is sealed and protected with a acrylic gel and displays incised detailing to accentuate specific shapes within the paper. Mounted in a black float frame, it's signed on the back and ready to hang.
