A new collage exhibition series at Berlin's SomoS Art House starts October 2015 with the "Imprint" collage exhibition by current SomoS "Artist in Residence" Ingrid Bitter (Brazil) and David Woodward (Canada).

Indexing the weight of cumulative history, the “Imprint” collage exhibition is the first of a new series at SomoS charting innovations in this technique. It will present international artists who explore new dimensions and expand the medium’s possibilities and associations.

“Imprint” presents the work of two young collage artists, David Woodward (Canada) and SomoS Summer/Fall 2015 Artist in Residence Ingrid Bittar (Brazil). The presentation traces how the artist's inventive use of heritage and history, nostalgia and retromania allow for very current and relevant work.

Apart from formal similarities, and a joint interest in employing crafting techniques, both artists share the ability to make subversive and imaginative use of public historic and vintage imagery to create very personal and intimate narratives.
