Love Graffiti, 2022

Inspired by Banksy, the anonymous graffiti artist breaking down the boundaries of the art industry, I played with colorful hand painted papers cut out into hearts and the word they symbolize, love.  This piece is about the layering and intersection of text, symbols, and color.

This piece is different from the others in that I experimented with resin so I can create and preserve works without an acrylic box.  I like the glossy and flat finish, and would like to make more projects like this.
