Working predominantly in hand carved wood and collage Borba’s forms have undulating surfaces that reveal themselves as constructed from the images that saturate our lives. Here colour is applied, abrased and altered from printed magazine cut outs, coalescing into patterns that seem to emerge from within the forms, a painstaking repetitive approach that honours ritualistic rather than inspiration-based practices.
