I've become fascinated by the subtle colours and intricate patterns of vintage postage stamps from around the world, and have found that I truly love the process of blending these tiny pieces of everyday history into new imaginary landscapes.

The postage stamps are individually collaged into place with an acid-free, xylene-free adhesive then coated with a matt sealant for extra protection. They still bear fragments of postmarks and other cancellation marks as a testament to their former active service with postal services around the world.
