About this work

This drawing shows torn metal pieces stacked unevenly. Some parts are bent or crumpled. The lines inside look like scratches or marks made by a tool. The whole thing is light brown and white. The artist scratched into metal plates to make this. The marks create shapes that look both rough and deliberate. Check out engraving to see how artists use tools to carve into surfaces.
