This picture looks like a collage. The top half shows a fuzzy red-and-gray ball floating in a blank space. Below it, a black-and-white photo of a person’s hands reaching up is taped in. The hands are holding what looks like a green stick or pole. The artist mixed two different styles here—one soft and sketchy, the other sharp and printed. The hands seem to be trying to grab the ball, but it’s unclear if they’ll make it. If you like this mix of images, check out John Baldessari.
