NOTE:
Collage on paper of an abstract and geometric nature. Cinema succinctly portrays the two main elements of the cinematograph: the body of the projector, here made of corrugated cardboard, and the projection’s luminous beam, in coloured paper. This work belongs to a series of three collages similar in material, technique and dimensions (inv. 1724, 3180).
