About this work

This print shows a building cut into sharp, floating angles. The walls are thick with texture, like stacked bricks or rough concrete, while some sections look smooth and flat. Shadows fall hard across the shapes, making the edges pop against the white background. The title *Tangible Space* hints the artist played with how we see depth. The way light and shadow mix makes the building feel both real and slightly dreamlike. Check out Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
