Info Needed: A collage is an artwork made by assembling different materials (like paper, fabric, photos, or found objects) onto a surface to create a unified design. What makes it unique is the layering and combining of elements that weren’t originally meant to go together, often to express a theme, tell a story, or explore texture and color.
