Public Protest

Sam Marshall

A vertical, highly textured close-up of a wall covered in decaying street posters. On the top right, a prominent black and white fragment shows the head of Malcolm X wearing sunglasses, cropped at the nose, against a gritty background. On the lower left, a faded, stippled portrait of an older man in a dark suit and tie, with a receding hairline, looks rightwards. The central area and surrounding space are a complex collage of ripped paper, revealing vibrant red patches, stark white peeling sections, and dark, textured underlayers. A horizontal strip in the middle has small water droplets, revealing a faint golden-yellow pattern of leaves. The rough, fragmented appearance conveys a sense of historical layers and urban decay.
