DCOR — Banknote Collage from Switzerland


DCOR is from Lausanne, Switzerland and does intricate collage work using expired vintage banknotes. Old banknotes are really detailed and beautiful. They also have a superior texture, since most notes are engraved or printed on very fine paper.

I love this "idea" that she has posted...

THE IDEA:

Money,money...
Earn it to live is a necessity.
But as ephemeral and fickle butterflies,
banknotes go gather nectar from hands to hands;
burning their wings by some...
allowing other to bloom.

There are a couple of galleries on her website and some of these pieces are offered for sale. Interesting stuff.

this is the perfect fuse between nature and the human issues, this is a total different concept in art that few person use.
