About this work

This collage is messy and loud. It mixes photos of people—some lying on the ground, others in odd poses—with bold red scribbles and text like *"1 MAN = 1 MAN!"* written over everything. A woman in black underwear stands out, her face blurred, while a close-up of lips and a shadowy figure in the corner add to the chaos. The red paint looks like it’s dripping or bleeding across the images, making it feel urgent and raw. The artist stuck together different photos and scribbled notes, almost like a protest or a scream on paper. If you like this style, check out Thomas Hirschhorn.
