Artist Hiller Goodspeed studies graphic design at Flagler College, St. Augustine, Florida. He turned a small Kolo Vineyard album into a bound collection of found-objects mixed-media collage. Here are just the first few pages.

This is the third in a collage series that Hiller calls Moon Soup:

The letters on the cover are keys that I pulled off an old broken typewriter that I picked up for $5 years ago. I thought the keys were interesting, so I put them in a Ziploc bag and figured I’d use them for something some day.

I’m in the habit of collecting things – origami paper and old books and magazines and photos. I have boxes of stuff. I like compiling it all and making something from it. It’s fun -- after collecting stuff for years and years, you end up with a bank of materials to use. Sometimes I even find cool stuff in the trash, like old comic books and newspapers.

Like once at a fair I found a pile of discarded, unused paper snow cone cones. I liked the shape, so I saved ‘em. Another time I passed a house where an old Japanese man had died, and they were getting rid of all his stuff. He had taken a bunch of his old newspapers, cut them up into small squares and glued them together, like a pad of post-it notes. I liked the paper -- mostly black type with just some headlines in red. I brought it home and I now use it in my art.

And about the name of his artwork, Moon Soup:

A couple years ago I was at Kennedy Space Center on the coast of Florida and while in a gift shop I happened across a rack of astronaut food -- one of the items was "moon soup." I wrote it down and collected it as I do with the materials I use. A few weeks later, when I first had the idea to create these pieces, I thought it an appropriate title for the collective work.

Thanks to our friend, art student Sterling Poole, who introduced Hiller Goodspeed to Kolo books.
