Welcome to the artist home page of Shelley Powsner
“Shelley Powsner imbues found objects with artistic expression.
Discarded scraps, written words and recyclable matter are interwoven into
eye-catching collages whose components become
interdependent and lose their rejected status.
Via her unique compositions, the artist explores the optical, cognitive and,
ultimately, emotional response of the viewer.
By framing seemingly insignificant bits and pieces, Powsner
elevates their inherent value to one of unadulterated aesthetics as
they resonate like pure music while bringing the peripheral to the center.”
