Depelchin Collection: Collage Gallery Like the patchwork of experiences that make up our lives we have used art and the creative process to piece together a mosaic of images reflecting the places, people and things that make us whole. The collage work below are the result of Lesson Two in the Self-Discovery Mural Workshop Series. These collage works reflect the participants favorite colors, foods, places, animals, musical instruments, textures, and plants. They are self-portraits in collage.
