Proletarian (from the Official Portraits series)

Hung Liu's Proletarian from the Official Portraits series combines lithographic printing with collage techniques on fine art paper. The work engages with themes of labor, identity, and the representation of working people within official visual culture. By integrating cut paper elements with printed imagery, Liu creates a layered exploration of how individuals are portrayed and categorized in society. The mixed media approach adds depth and texture to questions about class and representation.
