This collage shows two red walls with a small table and two chairs in one half, and a round tray with four weird, shell-like lamps in the other. The table has a vase of yellow flowers and a tiny white candle. The chairs and lamps are white, almost like plastic. The background looks like a mix of photos and painted bits, with a tree branch and some scribbled text. The title plays with words—one side says "good taste," the other "bad taste." It’s like the artist is joking about what looks nice or weird. The whole thing feels like a puzzle of cut-up images and handwriting. If you like this, check out Robert Filliou.
