About this work

This image shows a black and white print divided into nine sections. Each section has a white drawing of a different object or scene. The drawings are simple and abstract, with lines and shapes that don't always make sense together. Some of the objects look like machines or buildings, while others are harder to identify. The drawings are all very detailed, with lots of small lines and patterns. They're also very different from each other, so it's not clear what they're supposed to be or what they have in common. The whole print has a kind of dreamlike or surreal quality to it. The artist, Antonio Lorenzo, used a technique called etching and aquatint to create this print. If you want to learn more about this technique, you could look up etching.
