Broken Structures

Artwork Details

Tree with Sign

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 59.4 x 42.0 cm

This collage continues the exploration of visual pollution through the accumulation of signs meant to guide, warn, and inform. Gathered around a barren tree, these symbols of direction and regulation begin to lose clarity, transforming communication into clutter. The landscape appears silent, yet crowded with instructions, suggesting how meaning can fade when information becomes excessive and constant.

Communication

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage explores communication as a layered and fragile system of connections. Signals, antennas, road signs, satellites, and messages overlap in a landscape where direction is both offered and confused. Familiar symbols of guidance and transmission appear crowded together, suggesting that the more ways we create to connect, the more complex and uncertain communication can become. The work reflects on connection not as a clear path, but as a network of competing signals searching to be understood.

Visual Pollution

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage reflects on visual pollution as a by-product of urban growth and constant messaging. Signs, advertisements, infrastructure, and fragments of city identity accumulate across a barren landscape, transforming communication into noise. Familiar symbols meant to guide and inform begin to compete for attention, losing clarity as they multiply. Set against an empty terrain, the crowded imagery suggests how excess information can overwhelm perception, leaving behind a landscape where meaning becomes difficult to locate.

Imperial

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage reflects on the layered history of imperialism and its lasting cultural echoes. Monuments, trade routes, currency, and fragments of distant landscapes coexist in a shared space where conquest, exchange, and storytelling overlap. Symbols of power and exploration appear alongside everyday objects, suggesting how imperial histories continue to shape identity, economy, and memory. By placing these elements together in a surreal environment, the work invites viewers to consider how the legacies of expansion persist long after empires themselves have faded.

History

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage reflects on history as something both inherited and constantly rewritten. Emerging from the pages of an open book, fragments of past inventions, stories, and symbols drift into the present, shaping imagination and identity. Fire, memory, and transformation appear side by side, suggesting that history is not fixed but continuously interpreted, preserved, and sometimes erased. The work invites viewers to consider how the past quietly guides the narratives we construct about ourselves and the world around us.

Pollution

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage reflects on pollution as an inescapable presence in contemporary life, where industrial waste and environmental damage form the landscape around us. Emerging from this debris, fragments of music, performance, and visual culture appear like survivors, suggesting art as a fragile but persistent force of renewal. Amid smoke, ruins, and discarded matter, creativity becomes a form of resistance — a reminder that imagination and expression can still grow within damaged environments.

Lighthouse

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage reflects on the quiet decay of once-essential structures, such as lighthouses that no longer guide ships in a digitally navigated world. Set within a surreal landscape, fragments of architecture, machinery, and nature appear loosely connected, forming a chain of unlikely relationships. Contradictory elements — weight and suspension, growth and rust, direction and disorientation — create a visual metaphor for how systems of guidance gradually lose their purpose while new meanings emerge from their remains.

Tree Of Recycle

2023 — Digital Collage, Print — 42.0 cm x 59.4 cm

This collage imagines recycling as a living process, where discarded objects return as unexpected forms of growth. Mechanical fragments, domestic tools, and cultural artifacts appear to sprout from the branches of a barren tree, transforming waste into memory and possibility. Blending nature with obsolete technology, the work suggests that renewal is rarely linear — instead, it unfolds through cycles of reuse, reinvention, and imagination.
