In his series “Imago Verbosa,” David Hollier creates images of cultural and political icons

as composites of their famous words in the form of painted and typed text.

Part social commentary and part documentary, Hollier’s work literally blurs the lines between pop culture and politics

and invites us to consider the power of words to influence and endure. 

The name Imago Verbosa, means a picture made of words in Latin.
