"L.B.J."
1967

A mixed media collage featuring various elements including newspaper clippings, handwritten notes, a partial American flag, and a central photograph of a person with a distorted face framed by the flag. The texts and images suggest political commentary, with phrases like "NO HE'S WORSE" written in red across a piece of paper and mathematical calculations scattered throughout. The overall composition has a rough, layered aesthetic with visible tape, creases, and tears.
