About this work

This print shows two bold red shapes on a white background. Between them is a black, wavy form that looks like a stretched letter "S" or a looped ribbon. The red shapes are uneven, with one side slightly wider than the other. The black shape sits like a bridge between the red bars, almost floating. The edges are smooth but not perfectly straight—just a little uneven, like it was drawn by hand. Next, check out lithography to see how artists make prints this way.
