Main
Erin McGean is a collage artist whose practice centers on carefully sourced vintage imagery, geometric pattern, and systematic repetition. Working across physical and digital formats—including occasional augmented reality elements, her work explores how images are filtered, mediated, and reinterpreted over time. Her current series, Dataset, breaks found photographs into grid-based, mosaic forms, examining memory, visual inheritance, and the mechanics of repetition. Drawing from historical visual culture, the work reflects how meaning shifts through fragmentation, translation, and temporal distance.
