Patrick Pound writes in the latest issue of Art News Magazine.  "Collected Works" discusses his most recent exhibition  "Just Looking" at Melanie Roger Gallery as well as giving a wider insight into his overall studio and artistic practice.

"Like most artists, I started collecting to inform my work.  Gradually the collections became the work.  My work got a lot more interesting when I stopped taking photographs and started buying them.  When you collect other people's photos, you quickly find out that they fall into categories.  Before long I had 130 or so distinct groups.  Every type a drawer or two, in the making."
