CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION
The image depicts an abstract collage referring to body-like elements. Quick and smudged graphite lines occupy most of the composition, creating a mass-form from top to bottom. Loosely-shaped pieces of black paper are placed in the top corners and bottom left corner of the image. The dark shapes seem to create a background for the graphite form, while also embracing it.
