Andrew Millar works with a range of medias to produce a beautiful collage aesthetic in his contemporary prints. Layering gold and silver leaf over instant film, Millar’s pieces are soft and delicate, suffused with an intangible haunting quality and a vintage feel of times past. ‘Golden Lips 24ct Gold Leaf Collage’ depicts a sultry pair of lips, slightly parted in a half pout. Set against a gold leaf background, the image has been splattered with droplets of pink paint, adding texture and dynamism to the print. Using a palette of only gold leaf and dark, sepia brown, Millar captures the light and shadow of his subject with incredible dexterity. A truly striking piece of contemporary art.
