Wealthy Refugees Collage

I work predominantly in collage using recycled materials using carefully balanced colour and shape. The work takes on a life of its own depending on the way the shapes and colours relate to each other and often suggests their own theme. In this case, I was very moved by the plight of the many refugees fleeing the Middle East and produced a series of small portraits for an exhibition at the Gedock Gallery in Karlsruhe, Germany. This is one of that series.
