Collage / cut-and-paste construction
Building a work by cutting, pasting, overlapping, or otherwise joining distinct planar materials. AEU applies this only when the catalog medium or source explicitly supports collage construction.
Recommendations use ICU's bounded public graph. AEU source relationships keep documented fact, editorial mapping, contextual proximity, and interpretation distinct; proximity never becomes an influence claim.
