Tania Bruguera — Sunflower #2
Tania Bruguera

Sunflower #2

A delicate yet striking composition rendered in ink and collage on paper, Tania Bruguera's *Sunflower #2* layers fragmented materials to evoke the organic form of a sunflower with both intimacy and tension. The work reflects Bruguera's broader engagement with symbolism and political resonance, as the sunflower — a motif historically tied to themes of power, survival, and collective identity — is reinterpreted through her characteristic conceptual lens. The interplay of fluid ink marks and assembled collage elements creates a dynamic visual surface that balances spontaneity with deliberate meaning.
