Rudy Willingham, Artist, Los Angeles

Description

This mixed media portrait artwork by Los Angeles artist Rudy Willingham depicts a face constructed from strips and fragments of black tape arranged on a clean white surface. The facial features, including eyebrows, eyes, nose, and a detailed beard, are formed entirely with the black tape. Below the neckline, several bright red cassette tapes are stacked together horizontally. A red rectangular label with white text reading Agent State Farm is overlaid across the composition above the cassette arrangement. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the stark contrast between the black tape, white background, and red cassettes.
