sharing collage artists here! (sorry instagram but I don't like social media even though there's a lot of good stuff on there)
Below are a few collage artists I stumbled across whose work I find super impactful - especially artists who use collage as social, political and environmental commentary (which no matter how hard I tried, I could NOT stop doing in my own collage attempts!).
I also stumbled across this excellent resource on collage artists. There's some of great artists mentioned in the comments too.

I exist as an individual, separate from other people, with private thoughts. I also understand that other people are similarly self-aware. AKA Ballsy.

Anne Grgich
"As part of her drawing activity, Anne habitually uses collaged elements from a myriad of sources, from fine art prints to vernacular ephemera. In the new worlds that result, a candy wrapper or a piece of decorated tape can signify as strongly as a fragment from a 19th century mezzotint plate. These elements are at once a kind of shortcut to representation in the surging development of a work and quasi-magical vessels of meaning plucked out of other contexts and pressed into the service of expression." - Colin Rhodes
