Acrylics and Collage on 3 x 4 ft Canvas
Slashed bands of black and splattered color cut diagonally across the surface, carrying torn newspaper strips like fragments of headlines in a storm. Small, ghostly figures at the bottom edge suggest history’s castoffs drifting through a fractured, nocturnal landscape of information.
This collage recalls Cubist and Dada uses of newsprint, while its dark ground and flickering lines echo Abstract Expressionist gesture. The cinematic diagonals and embedded photographs also nod to Rauschenberg’s combines and postwar artists critiquing mass media and political spectacle.
