MUTHYGER utilizes monochromatic photography techniques to strip the image down to its most essential textures and shadows. By integrating Victorian Gothic revival elements with bold graphic design, the artist explores how social class dynamics and cultural sensibilities are etched into our visual history. The result is a portrait that feels both archival and immediate, focusing on the interplay between the organic human shape and the rigid structure of the alphabet.

The collage approach highlights a fragmented self-identity, suggesting that the persona is something built from pieces of the past. Through the use of versatile color palettes—here restricted to black and white—the work emphasizes the tactile nature of the medium. It is an exploration of abstract concepts through a specific, grounded aesthetic preference that honors the beauty of nature while embracing the artifice of the frame.
