Self Portrait (The Origin of Consciousness)
A collaged assemblage of magazine clippings, a dollar bill, and polyurethane foam is contained within a hand-painted wooden frame, merging consumer culture with questions of identity and awareness. The Bruce High Quality Foundation uses found and everyday materials to probe the construction of selfhood, suggesting that consciousness itself is shaped by commerce, media, and mass-produced imagery. The result is a layered, irreverent self-portrait that challenges the boundaries between the personal and the collective.
