Assembling postcards

Laurent Goumarre creates his series by attempting to establish a dialogue between several postcards. He has an immense collection of postcards that he has found in flea markets or second-hand shops. His assemblages are created by superimposing images, without cutting or constructing them, unlike collages. Two postcards (never more) are thus matched to recreate a new landscape or universe, or to create a game of anamorphosis. He attaches little importance to the theme of the cards he selects, but rather focuses on formal complementarities.
