Mark Lazenby continues to amaze with his latest collages

Date
27 November 2014

Mark Lazenby is the go-to guy for collage that just works. We last featured the artist two years ago and since then his portfolio of pieced together artworks has exploded with even more impressive works and a real exploration of materials and collage techniques.

Having worked in this medium for over twenty years now, Mark’s ability to switch between pieces with intricate narratives to ones completely stripped back to single elements placed next to each other is really exciting to see. The variety of imagery within Mark’s work reminds us of his skill at sourcing such a wealth of papery inspiration.

Currently exhibiting at London pop-up gallery Maybe a Vole with Liam Stevens, the exhibition is great chance to physically see his artistic orchestrating of disconnected images, objects and typography. But for those not in the city, fear not as Mark’s website is just as fulfilling with an archive of his work dating back to 1993.
