I love this. What I like about collages is how they can sometimes overload your senses with the sheer amount of detail, not to mention the way they're arranged and how you can shift your attention back and forth across the myriad of elements in the canvas.

(by the way, feel free to add an [OC] tag in the title if you wish)

Thanks mate ! indeed, i like the calls to contemplation allowed by the multitude of elements and homogeneity.

I love it! Gives me the feeling of not understanding what I'm looking at, though rationally of course I know exactly what I'm looking at. Kind of like staring into space.
