Digital collages by Robert Alan
American conceptual artist Robert Alan has created a stunning gallery of paper art, digital collages and photo-manipulated works. His collages start off as a traditional paper collage (magazines, etc.), some get painted over with water color, then they get scanned and photo shopped. If the artist finds them too dull (which he does very often) then he might just print them out again cut them up and repeat the process. Some of these are 10 years old, scanned altered cut and colorized many many times. According to Robert Alan, he creates his art through the medium of madness. That madness lives in a box in his mind “feeding on dreams and nightmares and occasionally gummy bears too.”

Photo art by Oleg Oprisco, a self-taught photographer, is iconic ethereal, fairytale images, which have inspired many photographers. Oleg Oprisco was born in the Ukrainian city of Lvov. After finishing school, 16-year-old photographer moved to Kiev and shortly worked in a photo lab as an assistant to an advertising photographer. Oleg was not satisfied with his work, as taking pictures of wedding ceremonies, birthday parties, or any other special occasions was more about earning money, rather than creativity. His life has changed only when he began shooting on medium format film. He experimented with colors, brightness and contrast, enjoying the ability to stop time and create his version of reality.
