About this work

This drawing looks like a messy, tangled crowd of people and shapes. The lines are all scratchy and uneven, like someone drew fast without erasing. You can barely tell where one figure ends and another begins—it’s all squished together. Some parts look like hands reaching up, and others like buildings or trees, but nothing is clear. The artist signed it in the corner with a quick scrawl. The whole thing feels rough and raw, like a sketch that didn’t get cleaned up. Want to see more by this artist? Check out Augusto Rivera.
