This drawing is all black lines and shapes tangled together. The lines overlap in messy loops, some thick, some thin, filling a boxed-off space. In the middle, there’s a vertical cluster of straight lines, like a bundle of sticks. The paper has a grainy texture, and the edges look worn. The words “KWANZI AaOJA 9” are scrawled in the middle, mixed into the lines. The date “1/18” and “2023” are stamped in the corners, along with “WOOL” and a tiny “WAC.” This is made using etching with aquatint.
