Retta Robbins works in progress
1st picture is 20x20; 2nd is 27.7x25.5.
I chose 2 photos of what I thought were classical sculptures for my 24
experiment project. Then I realized that they were the Statue of Liberty.
The iconic nature of the image then influenced my approach to the project.
I found in this current political climate that the liberty of the Statue of
Liberty was in question. The subsequent works I have done involve my take
on this subject.
I have used political posters as a support and have used collage and paint
and words in carrying out the works.

Go Retta!! Bob
I feel like these need a fight song or something we can repeat in unison while these are on the wall!
Love! The layers and incorporated text make me want to look closer and touch them! The red just pops! Can't wait to see them live.
