About this work

This piece is a mix of drawing and collage on paper. On the left, there are six simple line drawings of people in various poses. On the right, there's a cut-out photo of a person sitting on a roof. The drawings are in black and purple pen, and the photo is in black and white. The drawings show people doing everyday things like sitting or standing, but they're all simplified into basic shapes. The photo on the right looks like it was taken from an old newspaper or magazine. It's a bit blurry, but you can make out the person sitting on the roof. The combination of simple drawings and a cut-out photo gives this piece a playful feel.
