removing pieces of an original image. The French word “Decollage” in
English means “Take-Off” or “To become unglued” or “To become
unstruck”.

Examples of Decollage include etresissements and cut-up technique.

Similar technique is the lacerated poster, a poster in which one has been

 MIXED

employed. It refers also to a work of visual art that combines various
traditionally distinct visual art media. For example, work on canvas that
combines paint, ink, and collage.

When creating using mixed media, it is important to choose the layers

carefully and allow enough dying time between the layers to ensure the
