Collage as constant change

Work by Margaret Hart, in her show “Situated Becomings,’’ at Kingston Gallery, Boston, through October.

The gallery says: “Hart’s work explores the political nature of collage, embedded in its earliest iterations within the Western art historical canon. Using imagery from science and popular culture, Hart harnesses this inherent nature to deepen contemporary discussions of gender and technology, leading to a creative practice of collage as ‘becoming,’ understood most simply as a constant state of change.’’
