About this work

This print shows a simple, tall shape that looks like a person with their arms raised. The figure is mostly white with bright yellow at the center. Red and green marks cover the arms and chest, almost like scribbles or cracks. The background is a plain, light gray color. The artist used a mix of thin lines and bold patches to create the design.
