About this work

This drawing looks like a hat—maybe a fedora—broken into sharp, jagged pieces. The charcoal lines overlap in a messy way, with some parts dark and others barely there. It feels like the hat is twisting or falling apart. The title isn’t given, but the artist wrote "Looping Movement" in the corner. That might hint at why the shapes look so dynamic.
