A collage artist with five decades of work and an international exhibition history needed a contemporary web presence to mark a new chapter in her career.
The goal was a website she could send people to—one that would give a new acquaintance a genuine encounter with the work without requiring explanation.
The result is a focused, navigable archive that takes a visitor from a strong first impression of her artwork through to the ideas, influences, and professional history behind them, with image viewing at a scale that allows the torn edges and layered textures of the work to come through on screen.
HOMEPAGE
Letting the artwork make the first impression and adding a brief personal statement
WORK PAGE
Opening with a concise overview that expands when visitors want to see more
WORK PAGE
Partial view of an expanded category
WORK SINGLE PAGE
Large-scale viewing with magnification, uncropped views, essential information and easy navigation
INTERVIEW
Connecting the artwork to the ideas and experiences behind it

Ending the site in the same quiet visual language in which it began
The result
The artist now has a website that presents five decades of work without reducing it to a mere portfolio. New visitors can gain an immediate visual impression, explore the work at their own pace, and then discover the ideas and history behind it. The same structure can be extended over time into a more comprehensive professional and legacy archive.
Your web design is receiving rave reviews of elegance and grace — the luminosity, the navigation, the elegance and all the rest! Truly, a unanimous bravo!
