Original artwork description:

The image is a mixed media portrait featuring a stylised female figure. The style combines elements of graphic design, collage and photographic images, creating a unique, multi-layered aesthetic. The subject of the portrait is rendered using a technique similar to photomechanical reproduction, such as halftone dots and/or screen printing. This gives the image a somewhat vintage or retro feel. Red circles are used as a prominent design element in the figure's clothing, superimposed and combined with other textured elements. The composition focuses on a portrait, but the overall design is not representational in the traditional sense. The overall impression is contemporary, using a combination of bold colours, geometric shapes and a layered approach, similar to collage.
