About this work

This work is a round collage made of torn fabric, paper, and old book pages. The colors are mostly faded—whites, grays, and muted blues—with a few dark patches that look like night skies or stained cloth. Some pieces overlap unevenly, while others peek out from behind, giving it a patchy, layered feel. The words *"ST COLUM"* appear in the top right corner, as if cut from a book. A small label reading *"8 G.Cz"* is tucked in the bottom left, like a forgotten stamp. Look up Anne Ryan to see how she turned scraps into art.
