About this work

This print shows three close-up faces of people in black and white. The top left face is half-covered by a hand waving above it, while the other two faces look forward with serious expressions. The texture looks rough, almost like newspaper, with one hand sprinkled with silver glitter. The artist added shiny glitter to one hand, making it stand out against the dark background. This mix of rough print and sparkle creates a striking contrast. Next, check out The Museum of Modern Art to see more works like this.
