Modern Textured Cubist Abstract Mixed Media Collage, "Discovery"

This cubist collage by Peruvian artist Miriam Chipana presents an abstract, non-figurative landscape that invites exploration into a world of primordial and mysterious symbols. In the mixed-media composition, a variety of geometric shapes such as circles, squares and staircases can be appreciated, arranged in a dynamic and evocative fashion where textured fragments of tissue paper and gauze bandage are expertly interwoven, reminiscent of ancestral mantles that lie hidden as vestiges of past rituals offered to the Inca goddess Pachamama, or Mother Earth.
