Kaleidoscope Collage Homage (to H.bomb)

‘Does She Know?’, 2023. Moriah Reibman (BA ’23)

Kaleidoscope Collage Homage (to H.bomb) the artist created this series of six collages over the span of a year. Each act, individually, as a window into an imaged world, home to a unique story, characters, and motifs. Together, they comprise a portal: to a multi-dimensional plane, exceeding boundaries set by space and time, where multiple –and sometimes contradictory– things can be true at once. These works explore the role(s) of polarity, proximity, permanence, and performance as they pertain to perception.

Isolation I (2022), Isolation II (2022), A Fucking Mess (2022), Gemini Mind (2022), A Secret Garden (where we can get it on) (2023), Georgia (2023)

These works have been made out of 100% recycled materials for KALEIDOSCOPE COLLAGES. @kaleidoscopecollages

Moriah Reibman (she/her) is a storyteller from Seattle, Washington. Her concentration at NYU Gallatin examines how art evolves consciousness and can be a portal for accessing collective consciousness, through the study of film, philosophy, neuroscience, cognitive psychology, the history of science, and the arts. Reibman’s interdisciplinary film practice celebrates the multimedia dimension of the craft, and aims to explore the uncharted terrain of human consciousness. “I am interested in the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, our world, and the power that yields in action.”
