Roues de fortune

Collage of flyers on Strathmore paper pressed on wood.

Variables dimensions from 61 x 61 x 4 cm to 31 x 31 x 4 cm

Privates collections and Artist collection.

These circular collages display prices in a circle, forming a wheel that evokes a lottery game. The collage also reminds of a pizza, due to its round form, triangular wedges, and the pizza delivery box format of its support. This new series also echoes recurring forms in my work, such as in Pac Man (2006) and Water Lilies (2006). In addition, the wedge formed by an absence of multicoloured paper refers to an economic pie chart.
