This print shows a face split in half by a dark line. The top half looks like a mask with rough, uneven shapes—green, brown, and yellow patches. The bottom half is smoother, with a pale, almost ghostly skin tone and a faint smile. The contrast between the two sides feels deliberate, like two different ideas smashed together. The top half looks like it’s made of collaged bits, while the bottom half feels more like a traditional drawing. Next, look up Gardiner, Jeremy to see more of his work.
