Artist's piecework (7)
I believe the answer is:
collage
'artist's piecework' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
This is the entire clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for collage that I've seen before include "Stuck-on art form" , "Artwork from sundry stuck-on items" , "Art form using pieces stuck on" , "Composition made by fixing pieces to a surface" , "Pictures made by sticking together pieces of paper etc." .)
