This mixed-media collage combines torn paper, printed imagery, drawing, and painting to form the shape of a head. Fragments are layered and glued onto a flat surface, incorporating elements such as colored pencil, pastel, and acrylic paint to unify the composition. The background features a dark ground with subtle linear markings, providing contrast and visual depth. The work is built through an additive process, with individual components overlapping to create texture and dimensionality. Despite its fragmented materials, the final form presents a cohesive and visually complex profile.
