Kingston, NY based collage artist, photographer and painter, Amy Fenton, has been developing her way of seeing for decades. Amy previously spent years touring the world as a dancer with the critically acclaimed “Fiddle Puppet Dancers”, a percussive dance company that innovatively reinterpreted traditional dance forms. The “Fiddle Puppet Dancers” were chosen by the Smithsonian Institution to represent American culture in Japan. Amy brings the same impulse as expressed in her dancing, a well-composed ensemble of elements, to her visual art.

As a starting point, with photography, Amy captures the rich beauty of the natural world, old buildings and impressions of of daily life. It is with the same sensibility, that her collage art and painting emerges. She has developed a strong sense of design with which the elements of the collage don’t merely exist on their own, but truly become intertwined into a satisfying and elegant conclusion.

Amy exhibits her work locally and it is included in private collections.
