Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The work consists of a found shadow box construction with Plexiglas. All of the collaged elements are well intact. There is some surface wear and scattered pigment losses to the found shadow box, consistent with the artists choice of materials. There is a very minor pigment loss to the applied pigment on the playing card and some subtle darkening and evidence of wear to the card, also due to the artists choice of found materials. There is some unobtrusive adhesive residue on the collaged polyurethane foam.
