Introduction

In her surreal collages, American artist Vivienne Strauss clearly shows how easy it is to expand our imaginations. Her Little Birds, Big Adventures series depicts flocks of birds who do not use their wings to fly, but travel in four-wheeled vehicles instead. Strauss uses negative space to reduce her compositions to the essentials, resulting in humorous images reminiscent of a classic film or iconic tale. Through the reduction, the artist has created an extraordinary series of works.
