About this work

You see a sheet of paper with bold shapes cut out of it—some circles, some jagged edges—printed on both sides in bright red and black. Goodyear made this as part of a set where each print could be folded, stacked, or even worn like a mask. The cut-outs let light and shadow play across the surface, so the work changes depending on how you hold it. Look up *lithography* to see how artists turn flat paper into something you can touch and move.
