Le main de la liberté

1991

Mimmo Rotella's 1991 offset lithograph combines printed imagery with collaged paper elements on Arches paper. The title references liberty and the human hand as a symbol of freedom and agency. Rotella's mixed media approach blends traditional printmaking with contemporary collage techniques. The work reflects postmodern concerns with appropriation and the layering of meaning through diverse materials. This hybrid medium creates visual tension between flatness and dimensionality, text and image.
