Austine Comarow's Art studios. Austine created a new media, Polage® Art. Polage is an art form invented by Austine Wood-Comarow in 1967. This colorful artwork is made with absolutely no pigment of any kind. Just as a prism breaks white light into a brilliant rainbow, Austine's materials–cellulose and polarizing filter–create her palette of pure light colors.Without a lightbox or a polarizing viewer, a Polage might look as it does at left — areas of color, but mostly gray, like etched glass.
