Paige Ledom is an artist based in Kansas City. Once a painter, she traded in her paint brush for scissors to create intricately arranged collages using everyday materials, like paint swatches, cardboard, aluminum foil, painted paper, cut up photographs, product packaging and whatever else she finds interesting to envision new possibilities for these materials we interact with on a daily basis. Many initially mistake her work for a painting when walking by, but upon closer inspection are in for a surprise when they begin to recognize some of the materials used to create the art.

Ledom focuses on subjects and scenes from everyday life, depicting each one in great detail feels like a meditation on each one. Slowly building up the surface, reflecting on what brings us joy and what we are inexplicably drawn to.
