About this work

This painting looks like a map of rooms and hallways. White lines show walls and doors. Black dots mark corners and spots where lines meet. The background is a light tan color. The artist used dots to connect the lines. It looks like a simple floor plan, but it’s drawn by hand. The lines are thin and clean. Check out Mel Bochner to see how he played with ideas like this.
