Capricho 8

This collage painting highlights a ghostly silhouette of a young girl rendered in light pink and white paint layered heavily over a background of newspaper print. This piece is part of a broader stylistic focus by the late figurative expressionist Lorna Marsh, whose provocative mixed-media works routinely challenge themes of systemic societal erasure, gender violence, and institutional objectification. The textured collage elements utilize text blocks and media clippings to emphasize how public narratives and marketing media crowd out individual identity, particularly targeting the autonomy and visibility of women.
