About this work

This drawing shows a hallway with three walls and a floor covered in shiny, crumpled silver paper. Two doors stand open, revealing empty rooms with orange walls. The floor looks like it’s wrapped in the same material, with creases and folds everywhere. The artist used real wrapping paper and staples to make it look like the space is covered. The orange walls inside the doors are the only solid color in the scene. Check out how this artist used lithography to turn a real idea into a print.
