Queen
This delicate paper collage by Varujan Boghosian presents a playing card queen as the central subject, positioned within an elaborate system of nested rectangular frames rendered in muted earth tones. The card's colorful portrait head appears almost floating against the austere, weathered quality of the surrounding pages and borders. The work exemplifies mid-20th century Provincetown art's interest in found objects and humble materials, transforming a commonplace playing card into an object of contemplative formal study through careful framing and presentation.
