Fruit Tree Collage Art by Lorena Siminovich

I’m not sure if it works or if it’s just mind over matter, but I decided to incorporate some feng shui into my flat to combat feeling sluggish (it seemed a far easier & more LA thing to do than say, running). The only thing? I’m not into crystals. So to boost my health gua I headed to Anthropologie for something unique and beautiful.

There I found this charming 12″ square collage print by artist Lorena Siminovich. The simple, playful colours appealed to me (perhaps because they’re really designed for children’s rooms?) as did the fact it was perfect for my “health” area (great! no running!). But what I really loved was how Lorena’s background, eye and how she creates her collages:

The collages are made with found, recycled, painted and vintage papers. Lorena travels (in space and time!) and collects papers from all over the world, and from different eras. For example, in her collages you may find japanese architectural drawings from the fifties next to a school map from Costa Rica.

I also love that she pursues her artistic passion alongside a “regular” job - inspiring! And her sites? Amazing!

So I’m not sure if it was the addition of the print, Lorena’s inspiring background or the feng shui at work but I certainly felt better once I brought her collage home.
