Collage is a technique of art production, primarily used in the visual arts, where the artwork is made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. Collage is an umbrella term and includes painting, wood, photomontage and decoupage.
The description for a collage needs to reference the following aspects of the artwork:
Artist.
Name of image.
Artistic style.
Materials.
Texture.
Color.
Description of the various forms of images used to create the collage.
Depending on the circumstances of the description requirements, an artwork may need a Spatial Description. A Spatial Description uses a quadrant system to divide the image into four sections and convey the positioning of the elements to facilitate spatial awareness for the user.
