Collage is an artistic composition made from a variety of materials, such as paper, cloth, glass, metal, wood, and others that are affixed to the surface of the image. Collage is a two-dimensional artwork that uses a variety of alloy materials. As long as the material can be combined with the base material, it will be a collage artwork that can represent the aesthetic persuasion of the person making it.

The art of collage contradicts its nature with painting, chiseling or printing where the resulting work no longer shows the origin of material used. In painting, for example, from white canvas to colorful paintings. In the art of collage the original form of the material used must remain visible. So if using shells or pieces of photographs, the material must still be recognizable form of the original even though it has been assembled into a single unit.
