About this work

This is a hand-drawn plan for building a pyramid. It’s made of ink on graph paper with lots of numbers and boxes. The paper has grid lines, and the writing looks hurried, like notes jotted down fast. There are four labeled sections: A, B, C, and D, each with different measurements. The artist wrote "TO EDIT" at the bottom left, meaning this wasn’t finished. The date "6-74" is scribbled in the top right corner. It’s not a pretty drawing—just practical, with lots of fractions and arrows. Look up Jackie Ferrara next to see more of their work.
