Mixed technique
Mixed media includes all works of art that incorporate a variety of materials and components in a single piece. Mixed media art is a work of art that combines acrylic paint with fabric and paper. Scrapbooking, sketchbooks, decoupage, greeting card design, and mixed media art journals are just a few examples of projects in which mixed media can be used. This artistic style dates back to the cubist creations of Pablo Picasso from 1912 to 1914, the root of the term itself, in its aesthetic sense, goes back to the artist Jean Dubuffet in the 1950s.

Description
This collage is made from posters torn off the walls of the City of Boulogne-sur-Mer and the City of Troyes. 100% recycled, as is often the case!
My collage is made up of 4 political posters from the French election campaign in June 2024 (it's up to you to recognize them!) and two posters for cultural events.
I worked on my tears and assemblages with the intention that the shapes show an upward movement, and that the images and texts speak of outstretched hands, of male and female bodies that rush forward, that almost fly, to the aid of the planet and their country. Human beings who mobilize and find each other by all means, even through social networks.
