Bari Ziperstein uses landscape and architecture as metaphor in her collage work. Common threads in Ziperstein's work are ideas of over consumption and consumer excess. This series of collages depict idealized domestic scenes selected from home décor magazines. Within these scenes she adds stark white beams mutating from objects in the room, creating an environment that is overgrown, monumental and artificial.
