The Poster Club Max Osoki - Green Bowl

“While each piece begins with an idea, sensation or emotion in mind, the materials themselves sometimes take me in a different direction and I’m always looking for balance and that moment where each element clicks into place,” says British-French artist Max Ososki about her creative process.

Max has specialised in the collage technique, and for several years she has collected old papers, letters, book pages and vintage textiles found mostly at brocantes in France, which she then incorporates with acrylics and layered assemblage. “I simply love the texture and feel of old paper, the muted tones and hints of typography.”

In general, colours are central to Max’s creative process: “Colour is absolutely the foundation of my work. I can often spend hours making subtle adjustments to get exactly the right hue – it’s an obsessive relationship!”
