This is a simple drawing of a single dark blue suspender against a light tan background. The suspender is sewn onto the paper, with a metal buckle at the top and two straps hanging down. The paper looks worn, with small tears and faint pencil marks. The artist used real suspenders instead of paint to make this piece. It’s quiet but oddly striking because of how everyday it looks. Next, check out Louise Bourgeois.
