Collage

2013 - Present 

Digital and tradional paper and mixed media collage

​​​Michelle Smith’s digital collages, distributed under the screen name of Sister Wishbone, are a vivid exploration of nostalgia, surrealism, and the tension between reality and dreams within the digital landscape. Influenced by Tumblr and early 2000s internet culture, these works reflect on the evolution of online spaces—celebrating their once-ritualistic excitement while critiquing the overstimulation and disorientation of the modern web. Through layered imagery and dreamlike compositions, Michelle captures the escapist yearning for a more innocent digital era while confronting the overwhelming haze of doom-scrolling and blurred lines between fact and fiction. This ongoing body of work, dating back to her adolescence, serves as both a chronicle of personal growth and a poignant commentary on the shifting nature of human connection in the age of the internet.
