About this artwork
Postage Stamp Collage
In this canvas I have been inspired by Rangoli pattern, a traditional Hindu art form of creating colourful patterns on the floor or walls of a home. Rangoli patterns originated in the Indian subcontinent and were traditionally created on the floor or walls using a variety of materials, including coloured rice flour, sand, flowers, or chalks to welcome guests and different Gods and Goddesses to bring joy into homes. The colours… used have specific meanings. Gold represents prosperity. Red represents love and passion and triumph of good over evil. Blue represents the divine and the infinite and green represents nature life and happiness. My design is created from approximately 350 used postage stamps.

Peter Mason, originally a passionate art educator, morphs unique British definitive recycled postage stamps no longer available. Featuring the late Queen Elizabeth the stamps are styled into unique collage masterpieces, drawing on Pop Art influences like Warhol and Lichtenstein, often paying tribute to other fashionable artists. His technique involves meticulously assembling the stamps to form pixelated portraits and scenes, a nod to historical mosaic and pointillism traditions, reborn through a more modern perspective. His artworks exude a vibrant celebration of culture and iconography, urging his audience to view familiar imagery with renewed perception and awe.
