About this work

This looks like a small, hand-drawn square inside a rougher border. The center has a simple shape—three lines forming a triangle with a flat top. The background is a pale pinkish color, and the edges are scribbled with messy writing and symbols in black. The whole thing feels like a doodle or a quick sketch. The words around the edges are in French and don’t make much sense at first glance, but they’re part of the drawing. The number "772" is written in the bottom center, like a label. If you like this kind of raw, personal art, check out Frédéric Bruly Bouabré.
