Bruce Helander

On Thin Ice
2002

A collage of various cut-out images creating an abstract and disjointed composition. The pieces feature parts of human figures, clothing, and other elements that are layered and juxtaposed in a chaotic manner, with no clear focal point or narrative. The colors are vibrant and the textures varied, with a mix of smooth and rough edges where the images have been cut and assembled.
