“The work included is excellent throughout and both analogue and digital techniques are covered. All artwork is beautifully displayed and each artist’s work is accompanied by text which provides context for the artwork as well as an understanding of each artist’s processes, inspirations and influences. This hardback book is beautifully bound and the dimensions make this title not only a great coffee table book but a book that can actually be carried around easily too. Collage by Women is a fantastic collection for all lovers of collage and the publishers have created a book that perfectly demonstrates the fantastic work that female artists always have, and continue to produce.”—Fragmented Collective
