Etymology

The word 'collage' comes from the French term 'coller', which means 'to glue or paste'. The process originated in the early 20th century and was popularized by artists associated with the Cubist movement such as Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. They began incorporating non-traditional materials into their artworks, such as newspaper clippings and fabric, thus giving birth to the collage technique. The practice spread through various art movements, influencing a range of artists who sought to challenge conventional forms and find innovative ways to create art. Over time, collage evolved to include digital media, expanding the possibilities for artists and hobbyists alike. Today, collaging is widely recognized as a legitimate art form, embraced by contemporary artists and utilized in various creative expressions, education, and even therapeutic practices.
