About this work

This painting is all black lines on a white background. The lines twist and overlap like tangled roots or branches, filling the whole space. Some areas are thick and bold, while others fade into thin, wispy strokes. The artist used only felt-tip pens, which explains why the lines look both sharp and slightly fuzzy. There’s no color—just black and white. If you like this style, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more abstract works.
