The Surreal Banana Peel
The Surreal Banana Peel features gift-worthy collages that are virtual caricatures of the unbridled dream state. Joel Brown, mixed media magician, brings you meticulously hand-snipped-snippets reconfigured from everyday ads and articles into hypersurreal visions of sheer delight. Jumbled iconic jungles of whimsical collage wizardry, homegrown through juxtaposition of color, form, and even humor.
These collages are without concrete message, but like an image rich dream, invite multiple layers of interpretation from the goofy to the esoteric. The Surreal Banana Peel has many threads of inspiration, leaving something for everyone on your list—food, social commentary, science, spirituality, abstract form and texture, but mostly old-fashioned fun.
