This sketch looks like a messy floor plan or a half-finished map. Squiggly lines and dotted clusters fill the page, some labeled with words like "strips," "sheets," and "grey canvas." In the corner, there’s a tiny black-and-white photo of a rough, rocky beach. The artist scribbled notes in pencil, almost like instructions for rearranging shapes. The grid lines make it feel like a puzzle waiting to be solved. Want to see more work like this? Check out Barry Le Va.
