Geoff Litchfield taking part in Paris Collage Collective’s second edition of ‘Collage Notes’

Member Geoff Litchfield is taking part in Paris Collage Collective’s second edition of ‘Collage Notes’, an extraordinary group exhibition showcasing over 400 unique postcards created by talented collage artists from across the globe.

From June 3 to June 21, Paris will once again serve as the vibrant backdrop for this eclectic collection, celebrating the power of creativity and connection through the art of collage.

Each postcard tells a story, reflecting the diverse perspectives and artistic expressions of its creator. This exhibition invites you to explore a rich tapestry of ideas, emotions, and cultures, all captured within the confines of a postcard. As you wander through the gallery, allow yourself to be transported to distant places and inspired by the innovative techniques and imaginative visions of these artists.

The exhibition is a celebration of a remarkable convergence of art and communication, where every postcard is a testament to the beauty of collaboration and the universal language of creativity.
