Robert Henry Vintage is a [design shop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apoc-london) located in Brooklyn, NY. They’re currently featuring artist Andrew Zarou. You can get a taste of Andrew Zarou’s [collage art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith) in the gallery above.

Zarou uses [mixed media](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ladder-series) to tell complicated postmodern stories. Andrew Zarou’s collages may look like a bunch of edges of paper piled on top of each other, but it really is so much more. For more of his work, check out the links below.
