About this work

This is a black-and-white drawing of a simple, strange figure. It’s just a head with a blob for hair, attached to a long, skinny body with four droopy, finger-like hands. The background looks like smudged clouds or smoke. The artist used ink and a thick, metallic pen to make the lines stand out sharply. The figure’s shape is basic but feels a little off—like a sketch that got stretched. If you like this, check out Ernesto Neto.
