Sage Vaughn’s “Last Year” at Known Gallery

6750477069_7aef9ecedf_o 350

Known Gallery has started off 2012 with “Last Year,” a collection of new works by L.A. based artist Sage Vaughn. “Last Year,” combines the casual qualities of collage art that he has worked with for the past four years, with the introduction of the intricacy and dexterity of woven tapestry. Selected pieces from “Envelope Series,”a body of work consisting of small paintings cut and reassembled with found images on manila envelopes, served as inspiration for the incredible tapestries. Envelopes seem to serve as a sketchbook for Sage and it's a way for him to constantly create things while he is working on new pieces, lending themselves to serve as companions to the tapestries. Vaughn seamlessly combines the two mediums in 'Last Year' which will be on view until January 29th. Take a look at more images of the new works provided by Birdman, after the jump. -Kiesha Raines
