Figures Within the Grid

A vertical mixed-media collage sets a narrow, luminous landscape inside a heavy rounded black frame, surrounded by a larger gray silhouette built from dense crosshatched marks and worn, painterly textures. Tiny human figures and a dog occupy the distant field in the inset scene, while the stark monochrome structure around it creates a striking contrast between intimate color and imposing graphic form. The work feels contemplative and slightly enigmatic, like a remembered place held within an abstract architectural shell.
