About this work

This image shows a burst of jagged black lines spreading outward from a single point. The lines vary in thickness and angle, creating a sense of movement and energy. The background is mostly white, with some faint gray smudges near the edges. The artist used a printing method that lets ink sit unevenly on the surface, giving the lines a rough, almost explosive look. This isn’t a picture of anything real—just pure marks on paper. Check out how this was made using lithography.
