About this work

This artwork is a simple, off-white lithograph with a subtle border. The surface is blank, except for a small text at the bottom that reads, "THIS SURFACE MAY NEVER AGAIN BE THE SUBJECT OF PERCEPTION." The text is centered and in all capital letters. The simplicity of the piece invites the viewer to ponder the relationship between perception and the physical world. The statement at the bottom adds a layer of complexity, suggesting that the surface may never be perceived in the same way again.
