Martin Cole, Illustrator, Paris

Description

This mixed media artwork by illustrator Martin Cole features an abstract composition constructed from physical paper fragments on an off-white textured background. At the center, a square black and white photographic print displays a close-up of a human eye with a prominent eyebrow and dark lashes. Overlapping the top of the photographic square is an irregular, curved piece of vibrant blue textured paper with visible fabric-like grain. Beneath the photograph, a rectangular block of rust-orange paper extends downward, anchoring the vertical arrangement. The piece combines photography and collage techniques to create a striking abstract portrait study.
