About this work

This is a blurry, shadowy image of a person’s back and side. The face is turned away, and you can just make out a hand resting on their hip. The whole scene is in shades of gray, almost like a sketch. The soft edges and smudged lines make it feel dreamy and unclear. It’s not a sharp photo—it’s more like a smudged drawing. This style is made using lithography.
