Empire State
Empire State takes one of the world's most recognisable structures and removes it from every familiar context. Nico Tracey's collage work places the building inside a visual logic that owes more to dreams than to Manhattan — elements scaled and layered against one another until the composition creates its own internal gravity. The technique balances found imagery with deliberate design, drawing on a surrealist tradition that understood disruption as a form of clarity. The result is an image that is immediately legible and persistently strange.
Produced in our Berlin studio as an archival fine art print, the layered detail and tonal contrast of Tracey's collage work render with full clarity on matte paper. The smooth surface captures every edge and texture of this fine art print precisely.
