George Herms — Mother Board
George Herms

Mother Board

A dynamic assemblage of layered materials and found imagery, George Herms' *Mother Board* transforms discarded fragments into a richly textured visual narrative. The collage on panel reflects Herms' deeply rooted connection to the Beat Generation, where everyday objects and ephemera are elevated into poetic, expressive compositions. Chaos and order coexist across the surface, inviting the viewer to discover meaning within the accumulated marks, textures, and torn edges.
