Collage
Collage, which comes from the French work coller which means "to glue", is a technique of composing a work of art by pasting various materials not normally associated with one another onto another surface.
A collage may include magazine and newspaper clippings, ribbons, paint, colored or handmade papers, parts or clippings of other artwork or texts, photographs, and other found objects. These components are all glued to a piece of paper or canvas. Watch the video Visual Vocab: Collage (0:19) to learn more.
