Mixed media assemblage with papier-mâché, found objects, and collage ephemera
12 x 8 x 4 in.
A surreal scene unfolds inside this shadowbox — a bat, sculpted from papier-mâché and faux fur, hangs quietly amid a collage of vintage ads, matchbooks, and city relics. The piece is framed in black and trimmed with playful symbols — safety pins, bottle shapes, and color pops — transforming the box into both stage and reliquary. The suspended bat becomes a metaphor for inversion: a world seen upside-down, where the mundane (cigarettes, comics, urban grit) meets the mystical.
Part curiosity cabinet, part cultural critique, this work hovers between humor and haunting — a wink and a warning wrapped in paper and memory.
