“Dustin Yellin’s artworks can either be read as three-dimensional collages or two dimensional sculptures,” a recent statement says. “They are made from thousands of intricate cutouts from magazines, books, encyclopedias and found imagery. With an unfailing sense for content and composition, Yellin paints these fragments together between many layers of glass. Being both transparent and opaque, bodily and cerebral, these objects offer us a window into an endless array of times and places.”
