## About this style

Offset source fragments combine with colored paper rectangles, local stripes and generous blank space. One coherent scene retains deliberate scale and alignment clashes.

Postmodern graphic collage uses misalignment, scale conflict and mixed references within a readable composition.

An oversized roof fragment beside offset rectangles can remain connected through repeated colors.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Overlapping geometric pieces divide face, body and clothing while preserving the overall pose.

- **Landscape**: Buildings and terrain become layered planes organized by overlap, color and cut edges.

- **Object**: Objects break into a few shapes, with different colors or textures replacing curved shading.

**Subjects**: Choose clear portraits, cities, plants or simple still lifes whose broad shapes survive fragmentation.

### Variant relationship

Geometric Collage reorganizes orderly planes. This variant introduces controlled offsets, fragments at differing scales and localized pattern clashes for a more asymmetric hierarchy while retaining the subject.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Retain one recognizable source subject and its principal scene arrangement. Reconstruct it as postmodern graphic collage with a few crisp rectangular or irregular flat fragments, deliberate small alignment offsets, contrasting scales and a compact bright palette. Let pieces derived from the original image meet opaque colored-paper fields and one or two contained stripe patches. Keep a readable central silhouette and substantial quiet negative space. The result is one finished artwork, not a board of multiple examples. Avoid random photographic additions, floating new objects, dense Memphis pattern everywhere, torn scrapbook edges, grids of duplicates, captions, labels or a UI frame.
