So I especially love it when I find a collage artist who pushes the boundaries of what collage can be. Canadian artist Jessa Dupuis uses found vintage imagery with other materials like gouache, watercolor, and pencil, all on the unexpected substrate of used book covers. But even more impressive are her "tunnel books" as she calls them: a cut out in the cover of a book burrows deep into the body creating a sort of shadow box, revealing vintage images in a marvelous kaleidoscopic burst. It's all simply enchanting.
She has a SHOP section at her website where you can purchase one of your very own!
