Minimalist blue digital collage with soft pastel colours, a strange standing figure and a separate form resembling the peak of a mountain.

Borrowed Blue

Digital collage on unstretched Hahnemühle Cézanne canvas

25.4 × 21.17 cm

A collage borrows. I borrow from others too. Code-switching, mannerisms, ways of speaking.

I want to fit in, but I don’t always feel like I do.

How much of ourselves do we borrow to belong?
