The Nonexistent Cowboy Heroes Of Michael Tunk

"The process of making a collage vary from the theme to the materials used in the work. For years now the existence of new technology and computer programs assist many artists in creating their work, starting from editing a simple image to creating a virtual reality".


"Many of these kids keep on “blending pieces” growing up and turn into imaginative collage artists. One of these cases was artist Michael Tunk who has been exploring and learning the world through creating since he was a kid. The Alameda-based artist creates illusionistic collages out of old magazine photographs and images, and old folklore illustrations".
