Lusciously-Textured Collages Inspired by Modern Artwork and Vintage Fashion

After Klimt

Alice Lind­strom cre­ates cut-paper col­lages that are packed with lus­cious col­ors and tex­tures. (I can’t help but be remind­ed of Eric Car­le’s work.) One of my favorite of her series is The Push­pin Ladies, which is inspired by her love for “Mod­ern art move­ments and vin­tage fab­ric and fash­ion design.”

She con­tin­ues:

The project start­ed when I was brows­ing in a local vin­tage bou­tique named Push­pin Bou­tique and was struck by the over­lap between the dress­es dis­played in the store and mod­ern art move­ments.  I decid­ed to take the design of an exist­ing dress from the bou­tique and match the design to a world inspired by a famous paint­ing. The fin­ished col­lages were then dis­played at the bou­tique, beside the dress­es that had orig­i­nal­ly inspired them.
