We will be working with the cultural convention of collage.
Collage is an ancient art. It was used by calligraphers in tenth century Japan, and may be seen in the gold-leaf panels in European cathedrals of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, as well as in the nineteenth century collagist techniques of such figures as Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.

A collage is a work of art made by composing fragments of paper, cloth, cardboard, newspaper and magazine clippings, photographs, illustrations, and other printed material, and pasting them to a flat surface. "Collage" the French word for pasting, sticking, or gluing, is applied to the method as well as to the work produced.
