Work is a page from an Italian botany book. Eight rectangles have been cut from the page. A portrait and landscape rectangle have been cut from the left side removing most of the left edge. Two landscape rectangles have been cut from the right side removing most of the right edge. Three small rectangles have been cut down the centre line and one small rectangle has been cut to bottom right. Of the imagery that remains to top right is a detail of green leaves and to the left centre part of a red flower. The work is a form of anti-collage where material has been removed from a found source. Forms, notes and background for the work in “Acquisitions – Kinross Scholarship” file.
