Melbourne Collaged is a photographic exhibition that delves into the layered character of Melbourne through six vibrant photographic collages. Each piece presents a visual narrative composed of images captured over time, offering a multifaceted perspective of the city’s evolving identity.

Through the medium of collage, the artist merges documentary photography with artistic expression, using this process to explore a personal connection to place. The works reveal stories found within Melbourne’s urban fabric—stories of movement, memory, and transformation—while celebrating the city’s rich and dynamic use of colour. Carefully arranged with an eye for colour harmony and visual rhythm, the collages reflect the artist’s love for both the documentary and the abstract.

Melbourne Collaged invites viewers to experience the city not as a single snapshot, but as an unfolding tapestry of lived experience, captured and reimagined through time, texture, and tone.
