About this work

This sketch shows a big, loose drawing of a naked person lying on their back. Around them are odd objects: a suitcase, a tiny statue, a dress, and a few scattered boxes. The lines are rough, like quick scribbles, and some shapes are taped on. The artist mixed real paper cutouts with drawn lines and paint splashes.
