ABOUT GIESLA HOELSCHER

I began Inkblots in 2002 because I’ve always loved making things by hand. My passion for photography and the love I developed in college for digital collage eventually took over and I let go of the handmade items and started creating collages of areas around the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Though I’ve broadened my style to include fine art collages and retro-inspired work, the location work continues to be my main focus. My desire to explore and learn about the history of our beloved landmarks and the memories that we attach to them is what motivates me.

WHAT THE HECK IS

DIGITAL COLLAGE?

Digital collage is created with digital media (computers) instead of scissors and glue. This allows the photographs to be manipulated to create seamless, blended compositions.All the photographs used are original photographs taken by the artist, with the exception of the collages which use vintage postcards/maps.

COMMISSIONS & CUSTOM WORK

If you are interested in artwork created specifically for your store, whether it be in card form or something different, I welcome partnering with you to make that happen.

GREETINGS FROM MINNESOTA

15

With each glance, a collage allows you to relive the memories

of not just one place but all of your favorite places over and

over again. Each time you look at it you see something new.

Every collage is a perfect snapshot in time, forever capturing

the landscape.

Places change and even disappear as time marches on, but

the collage stays the same; embracing those places and our

memories forever. It allows us to take a moment to look back

and remember where we’ve been so we can feel more centered

about where we are and excited about where we’re going.
