A Depraved Mind

Ian Bilger

Digital Collage

10”x10”

2024

“A Depraved Mind” is a chaotic collage of personally captured photos that combine to embody a sense of corruption and apprehension of the mind. The piece displays hints of an assimilation of eve shown fallen to the ground and a setting consisting of flames and a threatening color palette. The composition emphasizes the center, the fallen figure, and the flames that entrap it. Your eyes are centered in the middle of the piece and as they travel outwards you see a distant colorless reflection of the piece bordering itself. A Depraved Mind challenges its observers to see a life without guidance, a life without God. A mind that is left to its own discretion will only rot in its inevitable turmoil. The piece is a challenge to hold fast to what is true and a warning for what is to come if you don’t.
