About this work

This black-and-white image shows two people in a plain room. One person is adjusting a blindfold over the other’s eyes, covering their face completely. The person doing the blindfolding wears a striped shirt and has their mouth open, like they’re speaking or laughing. The blindfolded person holds a small object in their hand. The photo looks like it’s made from photocopies and prints, giving it a rough, grainy feel. This kind of mixed-media work was unusual for its time. Look up Milan Knížák to see more of his experimental art.
