OTTILIA AVIRAM: Ottilia has enjoyed an award-winning career in design and advertising, working with both commercial clients and private customers, however her true passion is collage. Combining carefully sourced vintage ephemera with hand- drawn illustrations, she creates intricate, unique canvases which evoke a sense of a bygone era. Each work is structured and sketched before the collage is created using a range of mixed media techniques and materials including screen printing, image transfer and hand cut collage using gold leaf, resin and foil. Ottilia says: “I would hope that the viewer would see the intricate details behind each collage, as well as having a moment of nostalgia. The viewer would have a moment to be transported to a different era and experience a past that they can be part of. Images that might be forgotten will be seen. It will be a momentary escape from the digital world as each piece is hand created using traditional techniques.”
