"Over the years I have collected clippings from magazines and newspapers that catch my eye. I
pull from that collection and collage them together in jigsaw fashion as a way of sending the
news back out into the world as I see it.
I photograph my scrapbook pages and add elements of gold leaf, diamond dust and paint.
I have a particular interest in the metamorphosis of our planet through the unchecked growth of
human civilization and the extinction and displacement of the natural world and the impact of
that on our own spirit." - Robert Schwan
