7x5" Mixed Media on Archival Paper
Framed Black Wood 10x8x1"
This is a richly layered mixed-media artwork — combining painting, drawing, and collage elements — with a distinctly expressive, folk-art quality.
Central Figure
A young person with wild, spiky golden-yellow hair stands at the center, wearing a loose blue-grey shirt and patchwork shorts made from collaged magazine/newspaper clippings. They hold and examine a long, curling scroll or receipt covered in handwritten text or marks, which unrolls dramatically to the ground.
Surrounding Elements
Bottom ground: A mosaic-like base of torn colorful paper fragments in warm reds, oranges, and yellows, with more scrolls/film reels of text scattered about
Left side: A birdhouse mounted on an ornate post, with a small bird perched on top, sitting within a coiled scroll
Upper left: A red spiral sun with a swirl pattern against a soft blue-grey sky with wispy clouds
Symbolic & Textual Details
Rolls and ribbons of text/musical notation wind throughout the composition, suggesting themes of language, memory, or storytelling
The bottom right corner bears the text "perilous solitudes"
The figure's shorts incorporate collaged imagery, blending printed media into the painted surface
Overall Mood
The piece feels introspective and narrative — a lone figure surrounded by an overwhelming accumulation of written words, perhaps exploring themes of information overload, isolation, or personal history.
