English Collage Artist Phil Scott’s art work re-examines our relationship with two-dimensional imagery.  Often using photographic imagery his work carefully removes the context and through sophisticated juxtaposition conveys a new meaning within the final work(s). In his work we often see concepts and relationships develop as the work has been created, making organic and often forced relationships with the world we inhabit.  The image has become prevalent and the reading of imagery has become a primary tool in our understanding of the contemporary world and how we arrived at our destination. Scott’s intervention in the concept of the image creates a resonance that re-submits parts of the image in a poignant translation of the society we currently inhabit. The motto of “Find, Cut & Paste” has become a primitive motto of the processes Scott follows, but placing an emphasis on the “find” or sourcing of the images he transforms these unique artefacts into contemporary works in combination with other such imagery. The work is largely an extension of later Dada works, evoking similarities with the role of power and hidden propaganda in the original source materials.  The works frequently challenge and find a place within the context of art and art history allowing the audience to attach their own meanings and narrative from the clever combination of found imagery.Scott was born in the North-East of England and went on to study and live in East London for 20 years between 2000-2020.  He and his family currently live in Billund, Denmark where he continues to develop his practice as an artist, illustrator and educator/teacher.
