Americana reimagines the American flag through a vibrant fusion of contemporary culture and traditional symbolism. Built from layers of current magazines, newspapers, comic strips, and even a paper burger hat, the mixed media collage captures the humour, and popular culture of modern-day America.
The iconic stars and stripes are rendered in bold red, white, and blue, punctuated with subtle flashes of neon.
Delicate highlights of 24 kt gold and silver leaf emerge beneath a high-gloss resin finish, creating a luxurious surface that contrasts with the everyday materials beneath. The result is a work that is both visually striking and conceptually layered inviting reflection on the cultural landscape it represents today.
