Collage Collection
My paper collages are precursors to the creation of my digital art images.
Collage is a technique of making art from an assemblage of different forms that
make a new whole. The word “collage” derives from the French term “papiers
colles-pasted paper” used to describe the technique of pasting cut paper in layers
onto various surfaces. My paper collages are created from cutting printed paper
images and pasting them on handmade paper.
Meet Elayne Bryn
Elayne Bryn was born and raised in suburban Philadelphia.
She graduated from the Philadelphia College of Art with a BFA in
illustration. She is also a graduate of Villanova Law School. Her
work is inspired by the natural world and the beauty of the prints
and books located in the archives of libraries, museums, and
scientific institutions from around the world. Over the recent
years, these institutions began to make their collections open to
the world by publishing their archives as digital open-source

natural world through modern technology. Orbis is a collection of

The Orto Botanico, the Renaissance garden of the medical school of Padua, Italy, inspired the map pictures that incorporated ancient maps with vibrant botanicals. Founded in 1545, it is the oldest university medicinal garden in the world, and it is still in its
original setting. The Voynich Manuscripts, an early 15 th century codex, now in the Yale University Library, provided the inspiration for the Mystical Garden digital prints.The digital paper prints are printed on Hahnemuhle Fine Art German Etching papers.
