El Macho/El Señor
1962

A mixed media collage featuring various elements such as paper, fabric, and found objects on a canvas. The composition includes printed images, text, and abstract shapes, with a color palette dominated by earth tones and punctuated by splashes of blue and red. Some elements are layered or hanging, adding a three-dimensional aspect to the artwork. The piece is displayed against a white background, suggesting it is framed or mounted for exhibition.
