About this work

This image shows a long, narrow piece of paper filled with rows of tiny, repeating shapes. The shapes look like arrows or feathers, all pointing the same way. They’re light gray on a white background, arranged in perfect lines from top to bottom. The artist used a process called *diazotype*, which creates images by exposing light-sensitive paper. It’s not tied to a famous art movement, but the precision feels almost mechanical. If you like this, check out León Ferrari, the artist who made it.
