Charcoal, pastel, and colored pencil on paper // Wes Lang’s Offering is a mixed-media artwork that combines charcoal, pastel, and colored pencil on paper. The piece presents a haunting, symbolic composition, featuring cloaked skeletal figures and a human skull on the right side. The central area displays a small portrait of a woman, with a subtle skull floating beside her, seemingly merging innocence and mortality. The background blends bold black, pink, and green areas, creating a contrast between life and death. Lang’s work often explores themes of mortality, the human experience, and spiritual symbolism, and Offering seems to convey the inevitability of death and the transient nature of existence, depicted through both graphic and playful artistic elements.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
