Begin Your Commission

Whether shared through a heartfelt chat, a favourite photo, or a few cherished keepsakes, we translate your memories into meaningful hand crafted art

Some clients choose to simply talk through their story; others send a special photo, or include personal items such as fabric, letters, or lace for a sentimental touch.
The more you share with us, the more meaningful your collage will be-each layer of paper becomes part of your story.

The Process

At Wilson Design Collective, creativity always starts with a little bit of treasure hunting.

 

Much like magpies, we're drawn to beautiful, forgotten papers-old books, worn textures, discarded archives and prints-little pieces of history we can't resist saving.

We breathe new life into these materials, carefully up cycling them into intricate, handcrafted collages.

 

Every texture, every snippet of colour, every dictionary definition we collect adds another layer of meaning to our work.

Through an intuitive process of layering and storytelling, we let the pieces 'dance' together-building artworks that feel alive with movement, spirit, and character.

 

Each collage is a true labour of love, thoughtfully constructed to capture the heart and soul of the subject.

No two pieces are ever the same-each one is perfectly imperfect, brimming with hidden details and crafted to be cherished for a lifetime
