The Cardboard Club is making its mark




Robert Ridley-Shackleton sends cardboard club mixed media collages in groups and I think that is perfect because they seem to speak to one another, deepening meaning and demonstrating how marks can communicate so much.

I'd love to understand Robert's process. Have I asked that before?

This pair of collages is colourful by comparison to other collages of Robert's I've seen and the way they dance on the page is remarkable. I have a pinterest folder all about mark making and these images belong there!

The interestingly shaped wrapped collage is about the size of my thumb if it were run over and flattened.  Can you see the plaster (bandaid for Americans)? Many thanks Robert!
