Collection: BRIDGETTE BRAMLAGE

Bridgette Bramlage is a self-taught collage artist living and working in Chicago. A lifelong collector of vintage magazines, the 2020 pandemic brought out her inner collage artist and put the collected materials to good use. Collage continues to be a self-guided exploration of new patterns, challenges and storytelling. Her method is best described as precise cuts and deliberate layering to obscure boundaries in order to create abstract and figural narratives. A devotee to the analog, nothing is digitally constructed.

She has shown her works in galleries, magazines and art fairs, locally, nationally and internationally. Residencies have included the Kolaj Institute in New Orleans and Chateau Orquevaux in Orquevaux, France. Her work has been commissioned for private collections, showrooms and publications.
