Frequently Asked Questions

Collages should be displayed indoors, away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity, and extreme temperature changes. Dust the frame gently with a soft microfiber cloth. If your piece is unframed or needs special care, I'll provide specific recommendations when it arrives.

I highly encourage it! Incorporating your own photographs, letters, maps, fabrics, or other meaningful papers is a wonderful way to create a truly one-of-a-kind artwork. If you'd rather preserve the originals, I can scan and reproduce many materials instead of using them directly.

Depending on the size of the artwork and the intensity of the collaboration, the process typically takes 2–5 months from start to finish.

With over a decade of experience organizing and curating exhibitions, I love collaborating with community partners to bring their vision to life. Every space and project is unique, and the scope of my work depends on the number of artists involved, the duration of the exhibition, and any additional programming that accompanies it. If you have a project in mind, I'd love to hear about it. Please reach out to start the conversation.

Not always. I intentionally work with a mix of vintage and contemporary papers, and many of the older materials have a history that contributes to the work's character and sense of nostalgia. Creating a fully archival collage would require scanning and reproducing every individual element, which isn't always practical or desirable. If archival longevity is your top priority, I also offer archival-quality digital prints of my work.

My consultation process is designed to ensure we're aligned before I begin creating. If you have any major changes such as size, color palette, or composition preferences please let me know as early as possible.

Once your artwork arrives, I recommend living with it for about two weeks. Sometimes a piece needs time to settle into its new environment. If, after that, something still doesn't feel quite right, I'm happy to discuss minor adjustments. More extensive revisions requiring over five hours of additional work may incur an additional fee.

For now, I ship original artwork within the United States only. If you're located outside the U.S., feel free to reach out. I'm happy to discuss possible options depending on the piece.
