About this work

This image looks like a collage. Black paper cutouts show two simple faces with big eyes. One face is on the left, the other on the right. Between them, there’s a big word in bold letters, also cut from black paper. The background has pencil lines and a star shape. Smaller pieces of paper with drawings and text are pasted in, too. The faces look like they’re from old cartoons or comics. The word in the middle is Japanese, but we don’t know what it means here. The artist used cut-and-paste to mix different images together. If you like this style, check out Dondi (Donald Joseph White) for more work.
