Fitacola collage
Fita cola = Adhesive Tape.
Fitacola is a hand-made Collage project started in 2007 by Portuguese fine artists Graca Santos and Carlos Quiterio,
It’s a figurative ongoing project We’ve been developing since 2005, where intuition and randomness have great emphasis to define the relationship between our acquired collection (the medium) “I should preserve” (which is morally more accepted) and the act of dis-assembling/cutting them into new pieces that gain new life together as an aesthetic contemplative piece.
All the artworks are unique and original, made from assembled papers mostly acquired on second-hand stores, both found and bought resources, such as: pamphlets, magazines, posters, postcards, promotional announcements, card sets, stamps, photos, collectibles, etc, etc. Fitacola doesn’t work with images printed from de Internet or with digital Collage; all the artworks are completely hand-made.
