In the impulse "A Walk in the Forest" I encouraged you to collect and press leaves or flowers or other plant parts to use them for collages. And then, in the impulse “A personal herbarium” you already got to try a simple collage. Now I’d like to talk about the different techniques of collage, their possibilities and versatility. I want to introduce the concept. Collage is a technique that originated in the visual arts. You apply several found pieces of paper onto a canvas or piece of paper to create a new image. The word itself comes from the French "coller" meaning "to glue", and "la colle", which means “glue”, as the technique glues things onto a surface. The collage is of course not only relevant for the visual arts, but later also in literature and the performing arts. There are text collages, music collages, theater collages, film collages, or even text-image collages, as for example by the famous author Herta Müller.
