About this work

This image is a collage-style print with a mix of textures and colors. At the center is a black-and-white photo of a person wearing a wide-brimmed hat, looking off to the side. Around them, there’s a purple background with stars, a collage of smaller images—like a person in a red dress and a child—and a textured, pink-and-white pattern at the top. The name "Mariam Makeba" appears in the center, hinted at by the photo and text. The mix of old photos, bold colors, and layered materials makes it feel like a story. Check out etching to see how artists use acid and metal plates to create prints like this.
