What the Mirror Keeps

Mixed media collage on canvas · 90 × 130 cm

A woman's face emerges from a dense accumulation of torn editorial fragments — newsprint, jewellery, typographic debris — as though memory itself has been layered and worn thin. The figure does not perform; she endures, hands pressed to her jaw, gaze cast inward beneath a scatter of rhinestones and faded ink. Surface tension between glamour and erosion sits at the core of this work.
