Shaun Haugen, "Six Red Dots and Plant"
Ink, acrylic, and fabric collage on paper, 12"x9", 2018. $300
Artist Statement
My work is about the evolution of human psychology. I am interested in the primitive state of human existence that has changed over thousands of years into a more refined and controlled state of existence. I use this idea to make loose and poetic collages that verge on the bizarre while still trying to tap into the sublimity of modern human progress.
