About this work

This sketch shows a large wheel with a central hub and spokes. The wheel is surrounded by a circular subway tube and has a roof cut out. There are three rooms labeled "Room 1," "Room 2," and "Room 3." Room 1 has a circular subway tube under the slab, while Room 2 has a trench and motor with steel tubing support for water. Room 3 has a small structure with a ladder and a platform. The sketch is done in pencil on six sheets of paper and has a rough, unfinished quality to it. The artist's signature and date are visible in the bottom-right corner. If you're interested in learning more about the artist behind this sketch, check out Chris Burden.
