About this work

This print looks like a face made of thick black lines. The eyes are just two empty spots. The mouth is a jagged shape with a rough edge. The background is a light gray with some faint marks. The artist used a mix of printing tricks to create the texture. Some parts look scratched or layered. The lines feel heavy and uneven. Look up lithography next to see how this kind of print works.
