1983 Tote Bag

A figure in brown tones bends forward against a beige ground, their head replaced by a large red circular form emblazoned with white text and graphic elements suggestive of a vintage object or symbol from 1983. The composition uses collage techniques, layering photographic elements with illustrated forms to create a surreal, nostalgic meditation on identity and historical memory. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
