Bindhi Flame

1999

Tom Burckhardt (American, born 1964)

Burckhardt often borrows his images and colors from the art of non-Western cultures. At other times he adds collage elements taken from comic strips, decals, and magazines. Pasted onto old book pages, these images create fanciful patterns that invite the viewer to imagine an underlying narrative.
