About this work

This print shows a blurry figure standing in the center. The background is made of wavy lines in black, red, and white. The colors glow slightly, like light streaks. The artist used a mix of etching and embossing to create the texture. The lines look almost like waves or ripples. Check out how etching works to see how artists carve into metal plates.
