On Collage
Collage often breaks the totality of representation by interrupting the expectation that image concerns singularity.
The genre-unified image of the collage typically reveals itself as more than the representation of a single image: it reveals itself, instead, as a shift in images or as a shift across images.
Collage often breaks the totality of representation by interrupting its unified construct of time, especially the sense that the image occupies space and time only as a single moment, thereby introducing multiplicity where one-ness is expected, especially where this one-ness is a genre-identified type of presentation.
The collage is typically a series of layers, which appear as un-unified and/or as differing over time, but which are encapsulated (and thereby unified) in the singularity of the presentation. The presentation, other than the time it takes for its audience to assess it, remains somewhat, but not entirely, fixed. Yet it is though this difference in image that the collage calls the supposed fixity of its own presentation into account.
Collage is an un-fixer of image.

Collage is an un-fixer of image-time as a single moment.
