Westward | Original Paper Collage

'Westward' features an American Bison against a background of hand-painted, sunset sky. Mountain modern art merges hand-cut paper collage with painting. Finished in handmade salvaged tin frame and museum-grade plexi.

Each Dolan Geiman collage is crafted from hand-cut vintage papers sourced over decades of exploration and careful categorizing, held dearly until the perfect piece arrives to claim their colors and texture.

Dolan Geiman currently resides in Denver, Colorado. His work represents the intersection of his rural, Southern upbringing and his current urban residence. He handcrafts each piece from the vast array of materials he has been salvaging and collecting since he was a child. His two-dimensional work is created entirely from hand-cut vintage paper elements. He likes to spend time reminiscing on the past while flipping through the pages of forgotten magazines, intently searching for the perfect shape, color, or texture within a periodical’s pages to add to his archive of collage elements.
