Just To Say Hello
2014
Photo Collage on Postcard - Framed and Grouped
48x48 inch installation space
Visceral juxtapositions unexpectedly triggered,
more than likely to be mundane.
Never the grand gesture,
the momentous moment
or the just-the-highlights reel;
this is realism in a world
made of unreliable material
and shifting memory.
This collage of collages explores and questions
my sense of the real and the remembered.

Sharon Hogg is a visual artist working in Calgary Alberta and Lombardy Ontario, Canada. She holds a Bachelors of Fine Art and a Masters of Fine Art from the Alberta College of Art and Design.
Where humans intersect with unseen natural forces, she imagines what lies behind or beneath the surface. More than seeing, she wants to feel the backstory, the understory, the glue that holds it all together. Her work seeks to bring that underlying level of awareness closer to the visible and the touchable.
The Sublime, New Materialism and the Vorticists are influences.
