collage with etching // The Oracle of Zeus by Joe Tilson, created in 1980, is an intricate collage and etching that combines natural and symbolic elements. The piece features a grid of lush green leaf prints, each subtly varied, arranged neatly across the page. At the top, a photograph of a hand placed on rough stone suggests a connection to nature and ancient rituals. Below, red geometric symbols evoke a mysterious script, perhaps hinting at divine messages or ancient languages associated with Zeus, the Greek god. This work, part of a limited edition of 75, reflects Tilson’s exploration of mythology, nature, and human interaction with the divine. Measuring 80.2 x 57.2 cm, the piece invites viewers to contemplate the symbolic resonance of natural forms and ancient beliefs.

Kitsch is a term used to describe cheap, commercial, sentimental, or vulgar art and objects commonly associated with popular culture.
