About this work

This is a round, flat object with a rough, off-white surface. It looks like a mix of crumbled paper and bits of dark spots scattered unevenly. The edges are slightly frayed, and there’s a small nail sticking out near the top. The texture makes it feel almost like something broken or worn down over time. The artist, Franz West, often used everyday materials in his work. Look up Franz West to see how he turned simple objects into art.
