About this work

This black-and-white image shows rough, cracked shapes on a dark background. The lines are uneven, like scratches or veins in the surface. Some faint white marks look like thin strokes or cracks cutting through the texture. This is a lithograph, which means it was printed using a smooth stone or metal plate. The artist used the rough edges and cracks to create the whole piece. Look up lithography to see how this technique works.
