About this work

This sketch is messy and full of scribbles. There’s a big black shape that looks like a torn curtain or cloth. Smaller drawings show furniture—like a bed and chairs—but they’re rough and unfinished. On the right, three tiny black-and-white photos of a person standing in a corner. The whole page is covered in handwritten notes and doodles. The notes seem to be planning ideas for materials and sizes. One part talks about "black fabric" and "40% price?"—maybe about cost or size. The photos look like they’re studying how light hits a corner. Check out Monica Bonvicini for more work like this.
