Original artwork description:

The image shows a mixed approach, combining elements of collage with graphic design and portraiture. The overall style leans towards a modern, deconstructed aesthetic, reminiscent of Dadaism or contemporary abstract expressionism with a touch of urban art. The colour palette is vibrant and varied, using a mix of saturated tones such as reds, pinks, blues and oranges, juxtaposed with a black and white halftone representation of a face. The composition employs a split approach, combining a fragmented portrait with abstract shapes and text elements. The medium is mixed media, mounted on MDF.
An initial digital sketch was used, and transfer and glued paper techniques were employed to create the background.

The presence of text in various areas further enhances the multidimensional and layered quality of the image.
