Colleen Mirassou
My medium is assemblage and collage. I was trained classically in oil painting and drawing representationally. As I worked over the years the art came off the canvas. Paintings became collage and collage became 3-D assemblage. These pieces are comprised of things I have collected that especially attracted me; mainly naturally aged material.
My pieces express a concept or personal feelings which I feel becomes universal. I studied at the Academy of Art in San Francisco toward my BA and Notre Dame De Namur University for my masters in Art Therapy.
